External Risk Factors

INTERNAL RISK FACTORS

A. Business Risks

1. Our business requires high inventory levels. Our production cycle is also long. Our failure to accurately forecast and manage inventory could result in an unexpected shortfall and/or surplus of products, which could adversely affect our business. We are engaged in the business of hybrid seeds which requires considerable amount of time. Many a times, the desired breed of hybrid/research seed is obtained even at 8th to 10th generation where each generation represents a complete crop cycle. An accurate forecast of demand for any product is required beforehand because an inaccurate forecast may result in an over-supply of products, which may increase costs, negatively impact our cash flow, erode margins substantially and ultimately necessitate write-offs of inventory. Any of the aforesaid circumstances could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We monitor our inventory levels based on our own projections of future demand. Also, considering the time required to produce commercial quantities of our products, we need to take production decisions well in advance of sales. 2. We are heavily dependent on the success of our Research and Development (R & D) and the failure to develop new and improved products could adversely affect our business. Our success depends heavily on our ability to continue developing new products. Seed R&D covers a broad technological platform and technological advances are frequent, rapid and complex. We are heavily dependent on R & D procedures for making hybrid seeds and research seeds, depending on the demand. Thus all our activities are dependent on R & D activities carried out by scientists, and, any flaw in the R & D process can hamper our production and lead to wastage of time and resources. In Fiscal 2013, 2014 and 2015, our Company incurred Rs. 8.87 lakhs, Rs. 10.24 lakhs and Rs. 29.70 lakhs respectively on R & D expenses, which accounted for 0.75%, 0.69% and 1.74% of our total revenue in Fiscal 2013, 2014 and 2015 respectively. Time taken in R & D activities is very long especially for Germplasm in open pollination. R & D process involves the application of high level of technology and machinery. This involves setting up and maintenance expense of machinery and other technological equipment. Further we cannot assure that we shall make enhanced R&D investments or continue the current level of R&D

Page 17 of 444

investments in our business, or that our investment will yield satisfactory results in terms of new and improved products, or will yield any results at all because of the fact that, R & D involve huge level of innovation which is to be constantly monitored at and adopted in the process to achieve the desired market output and major innovations further add to cost of production because non adoption of the innovations will leave the Company at a back front. 3. We have not registered the seed varieties produced by us through research and development under the PPV&FR Act, 2001 We have developed a number of hybrid seed varieties through R & D at a substantial cost. However none of these varieties have, so far, been registered under the PPV&FR Act, 2001. We are in the process of registering the same however; we cannot assure that the products will be registered by the authorities concerned and whether we will be entitled to statutory protection under the PPV&FR Act. Also in the interim period, if anyone infringes on these varieties or produces them by back-crossing or other means our business could get severally affected. 4. The Indian income tax authorities have challenged and may continue to challenge use of certain income tax exemptions. If these exemptions become unavailable to us, our tax liability could increase significantly and, in turn, our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. Income derived from agricultural operations is exempt under Section 10(1) of the Indian Income Tax Act, 1961 (the “I.T. Act”). In accordance with Section 2(1A) of the I.T. Act, any income derived from land situated in India, through the performance of any process to render agricultural produce fit to be taken to the market, constitutes agricultural income. There are varying judicial views in India relating to the taxability of income derived from the production, marketing and sale of seeds. These views are yet to be settled by the Supreme Court of India. Our Company is of the view that it is entitled to the exemption available in relation to agricultural income under the provisions of the I.T. Act and that this exemption would be available to income generated from the production, marketing and sale of seed products.

We have provided for income tax liability for the assessment year 2014- 2015 on the basis of the assumption that we would be entitled to the tax exemption for agricultural income. Accordingly, should this tax exemption not be available going forward, our current provisions for these and future assessment years may be inadequate as our future tax liability could increase significantly and, in turn, materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. 5. The seeds business is highly seasonal and such seasonality may affect our operating results. Our business is seasonal in nature. Both raw material supplies and sales are seasonal, as our business is influenced by the traditional crop seasons in India. In India, majority of the farmers depend on monsoon for cultivation. Rainfall usually occurs during Kharif season and hence, the timing and seasonality of rainfall has an impact on the business of our Company. Thus, we are subject to seasonal factors, which make our operational results very unpredictable. We recognize revenues only upon the sale of our products. Empirically, the revenues recorded during planting and harvesting seasons are lower compared to revenues recorded during the periods following such seasons. During periods of lower sales activities, we continue to incur substantial operating expenses, but our revenues remain usually lower. Due to the inherent seasonality of our business, results of one reporting period may not be necessarily comparable with preceding or succeeding reporting periods.

Page 18 of 444

Sometimes, even if there is a slight change in timing of rain fall, the sales will get deferred from one reporting period to another reporting period. The sales that were supposed to take place during one financial year may get added to sales of the next financial year and therefore results of even full financial year may not necessarily be comparable to the other financial year.

6. We have a limited number of raw material suppliers. Any kind of refusal from them can hinder our production resulting into loss of our clients. There are a very few suppliers from which raw materials like hybrid seeds and they may allocate their resources to service other clients ahead of us. While we believe that we could find additional suppliers to supply these raw materials, any failure of our suppliers to deliver these raw materials in the necessary quantities or to adhere to delivery schedules or specified quality standards and technical specifications would adversely affect our production processes and our ability to deliver orders on time and at the desired level of quality. As a result, we may lose customers which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

7. Our Company and some of our Directors and Promoters are involved in certain legal proceedings, which, if determined adversely, may adversely affect our business and financial condition. Our Company is currently, and may in the future be, implicated in lawsuits in the ordinary course of our business, including lawsuits and arbitrations involving compensation for loss due to various reasons including tax matters, civil disputes, labour and service matters, statutory notices, regulatory petitions, consumer cases and other matters. Any Litigation or arbitration could result in substantial costs and a diversion of effort by us and/or subject us to significant liabilities to third parties. There is at present one outstanding criminal case number 594/14 against our Company pending before the Honourable Judicial Magistrate (First Class), Jamkandorna, Rajkot for alleged non-compliance with section 7(b) of the Seeds Act, 1966 (‘Seeds Act’) by the Agriculture Officer, Jamkandorna, Rajkot on 12 August 2014. The Agriculture Officer alleges that the Cumin MSC-5 seeds having batch number MAR-BLK 131 did not meet the minimum limits of the germination and purity with respect to such seeds notified under section 6 (a) of the Seeds Act. This constitutes a violation of section 7(b) of the Seeds Act which states that no person shall carry on the business of selling, keeping for sale, offering to sell, bartering or otherwise supplying any seed of any notified kind or variety, unless such seeds conform to the minimum limits of germination and purity specified under section 6 (a). If there is an adverse finding against the Company, it will be liable for a fine under section 19 of the Seeds Act, which may extend to five hundred rupees since this will be the Company’s first offence. At present, the Company has filed its written statement before the Honourable Judicial Magistrate (First Class), Jamkandorna, Rajkot.

The Company has been served with a notice for audit assessment under Section 34 (2) of the Gujarat Value Added Tax, Act, 2003 for the assessment year 2011-2012 dated 11 March 2014 to be present before the Commercial Tax Officer with all necessary evidence to support the self- assessment made by the Company. The Company has also been served with a notice under Rule 9(4) of the Central Sales Tax (Gujarat) Rules, 1970 for the assessment year 2011-2012 dated 11 March 2014 to be present before the Commercial Tax Officer with all necessary evidence to support the return made by the Company and to show cause as to why the Company should not be reassessed to tax and penalty under Section 9 of the Central Sales Tax Act, 1956.

Page 19 of 444

At present, it is not possible for us to ascertain the exact amount of penalty, if any, apart from what is already disclosed above, that may be levied against our Company, the Directors, Promoters or the Firms for the defaults under the taxation laws. A summary of ongoing case is below:

Income Tax Notice Criminal Cases Name of Entity Amount No. of Notices Amount Involved No. of Cases Involved Against the 2 NA 1 NA Company Against the 0 NA 0 NA Director/Promoter Against Group 0 NA 0 NA Companies In addition, our Company is subject to risks of litigation including public interest litigation, contract, employment related, personal injury and property damage. Our Company cannot provide any assurance that these legal proceedings will be decided in our favour. Any adverse decision may have a significant effect on our business including the financial condition of our Company, delay in implementation of our current or future project and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the results of such legal proceedings will not materially harm our business, reputation or standing in the marketplace or that our Company will be able to recover any losses incurred from third parties, regardless of whether our Company is at fault or not. There can be no assurance that losses relating to litigation or arbitration will be covered by insurance, that any such losses would not have a material adverse effect on the results of our operations or financial condition, or that provisions made for litigation and arbitration related losses would be sufficient to cover our ultimate loss or expenditure. Details of outstanding proceedings that have been initiated against our Company, our Promoters, our Group Companies and our Directors are set forth in the section titled “Outstanding Litigation and Material Developments” starting from page number 291 of this Prospectus. 8. Our Company has not complied with certain statutory provisions under Companies Act 1956 or Companies Act, 2013 as the case may be. Such non-compliances/lapses may attract penalties. Our Company has not complied with certain provisions of Private Placement like opening of separate Bank Account, allotment of shares within 60 days of receipt of share application money etc and has delayed in complying with reporting requirements such as registration of resolutions, filing of form for change in designation of directors, etc, as required to be filed under the Companies Act to the Registrar of Companies. We have in the past, not complied with the provisions of Section 314(1) of the Companies Act, 1956 with respect to appointment of relatives of directors to an “office or place of profit.” The said appointments require approval of the shareholders by passing special resolutions, need to be filed with RoC within prescribed time. If any office or place of profit is held in contravention of the provisions of Section 314 (1), the relatives of the directors shall be inter alia, deemed to have vacated his office as such, on and from the date next following the date of the general meeting of the Company and shall be liable to refund any remuneration received from the Company Such delay/non-compliance may in the future render us liable to statutory penalties and disallowing the resolutions, which may have consequence of violation of certain statutory provisions under Companies Act 1956.

Page 20 of 444

We have appointed a whole time Company Secretary with effect from May 20, 2015 who shall look after the legal compliances of the Company and shall ensure the timely compliances in future. 9. There are discrepancies in filings made by our Company with the Registrar of Companies There are discrepancies in the data which is filed with the Registrar of Company with respect to the allotment of shares wherein shares which were allotted for consideration other than cash have been shown as being issued for cash. Such discrepancies may in the future render us liable to statutory penalties which may have consequence of violation of certain statutory provisions under Companies Act 1956. 10. There are discrepancies in financial statements prepared by our Company for earlier financial years. There are discrepancies in financial statements prepared by our Company for earlier financial years wherein certain amounts in the nature of current liabilities and security deposits were wrongly shown as Loans. Such discrepancies may in the future render us liable to statutory penalties which may have consequence of violation of certain statutory provisions under Companies Act 1956 and Accounting Standards. These discrepancies have now been rectified in the Restated Financial Statements. 11. Any penalty or action taken by any regulatory authorities in future for non-compliance with provisions of corporate and other laws could impact the financial position of the Company to that extent Our Company may have not complied with certain accounting standards and Section 4A of The Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, in the past. Although no show cause notice in respect of the same has been received by the Company till date, any penalty imposed for such non-compliance could affect our financial conditions to that extent. In relation to gratuity we have not received any notice/communication from the relevant authority, for the previous defaults till date. Further, our Company has not obtained any insurance for its liability towards the payment of gratuity as prescribed under Section 4A of The Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 from Life Insurance Corporation of India or any other prescribed insurer till date. However, now our Company has complied with the accounting standards and has given effect in the Restated Financial Statements. 12. Our success depends largely on our ability to attract key personnel. Our business is highly specialized in nature and involves large amount of research before the actual execution takes place. Production is mainly dependant on research activities performed by breeders who are skilled personnel, thus attraction and retention of skilled key personnel is very crucial for our business. The availability of skilled technical and marketing talent is limited. Further, each producer has its own set of customized products and processes, and it takes substantial time and resources to adequately train human resource talent to understand and adapt to the producer’s business. The future success of our business will also depend on our ability to identify, attract, hire, train, retain and motivate skilled technical and managerial personnel, who may be highly sought by our competitors as well. If we fail to hire and retain sufficient numbers of key personnel, primarily skilled R&D, technical, sales and marketing personnel, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Page 21 of 444

13. Lack of awareness and knowledge among farmers All the major developments and the inventions are not able to reach the people at the grassroot level like farmers, who are the main human resource for agriculture, thus lack of knowledge and awareness among them is the basic reason for them not opting for hybrid seeds and choosing naturally grown seeds over them. We undertake awareness initiative like display of seeds at our R&D farms, product promotional activities, product demonstrations at farmer’s field for evaluation of product performance and acceptance of product, “Field Day” programs for farmers etc. to spread awareness about our products. 14. Our Company faces competition from certified seed players. Our failure to effectively compete may reduce our profitability and results of operations Increased competition may result in decreased demand or lower prices for our products. Our failure to compete effectively could reduce our profitability and in turn our results of operations. We face substantial competition due to technological advances by our competitors in various facets of the agri-inputs business especially certified seed players. Multinational corporations invest huge amounts of money and considerable resources on Research and Development and technology and are thus able to come out with very effective and highly improved versions of hybrids. For example, Bt.Cotton, a very effective hybrid developed by Monsanto has given very tough competition to all other seed companies. Other seed companies are sharing that technology by paying royalty to Monsanto. Hence, these types of technological advances force us to face substantial competition. Our competitors include companies like Monsanto India Limited, Nuziveedu Seeds Limited, Syngenta India Limited, Bayer CropScience, Kaveri Seeds India Limited etc. Further, the introduction of biotechnology has resulted in the entry of various agro-input companies into the seed industry, thus fostering intense competition in the industry. The period for developing and commercializing a hybrid can run into several years. If a competitor introduces a product more suited to farmer needs, it could take a long period for us to develop a suitably competing product, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Some of our competitors may have, or are subsidiaries of large international corporations that have, significantly greater resources than those available to us. If we are unable to compete effectively, including in terms of pricing or providing quality products, our market share may decline, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. 15. Our inability to predict accurately the demand for our products and to manage our production and inventory levels could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. We sell our seed products primarily to distributors, who in turn sell the products primarily to farmers, who are our end consumers. We monitor our inventory levels at different stages of our supply chain based on our own estimates of future demand for our products. Because of the length of time necessary to produce commercial quantities of seeds, we are typically required to make production decisions well in advance of sales. Our end consumers generally make purchasing decisions for our products based on market prices, economic and weather or climatic conditions and certain other factors that we or our distributors may not be able to anticipate accurately in advance. Demand for our products may also be affected by factors such as irrigation facilities, availability of credit, overall agricultural production and the like. Any negative change in preferences of our end consumers for our products could result in reduced demand for our products and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Page 22 of 444

16. The prices of hybrid seeds produced by us is costlier than the natural seed. The hybrid seeds produced by us are costlier than the natural seeds and there is steep increase in the prices of hybrid seeds as compared with that of natural seeds. The increased prices are a result of huge R&D involved, expert costs and processing costs. The development process for new varieties of seeds is lengthy and costly. On an average, it takes three to five years, depending on the crop, for a proprietary hybrid to reach commercial viability. Despite investments in this area, our R&D efforts may not result in the discovery or successful development of new products. 17. Conflicts of interest may arise out of common business objects shared by our Company and our Promoter Group Entities. Our Promoters and Directors Pravinkumar Patel, Mafatlal Patel and Dhanajibhai Patel are Kartas of Pravinbhai Mafatlal Patel HUF, Mafatlal Jethalal Patel HUF and Dhanjibhai Shivrambhai Patel HUF respectively which are involved in activities similar to those conducted by our Company. As these entities do not have any non–compete agreements in place amongst themselves, there is a conflict of interest between our Company and the said Group Entities. Such a conflict of interest may have an adverse effect on our business and growth.

For further details of, please refer to the chapter titled "Our Group Entities" on page 214 of this Prospectus. 18. We do not own the lands on which our research activities are being carried on. The land on which R & D activities are carried on is not owned by the Company but has been taken on lease. Our R&D units situated at village Maktupur, Ta. Unjha, District Mehsana, Gujarat and Village Valad, Ta. Gandhinagar District Gandhinagar, Gujarat are taken on lease from our directors and shareholders. The lease deeds are valid for a period of five years up to April 2, 2019 and March 29, 2020 respectively. There can be no assurance that renewal of lease agreement with the owners of the land will be entered into. In the event of non-renewal of lease, we may be required to shift our facility to a new location and there can be no assurance that the arrangement we enter into in respect of new premises would be on such terms and conditions as the present one. For further details of properties please refer to the section titled "Our Business" beginning on page 135 of this Prospectus. 19. We do not own our Registered Office from which we operate. The premises at which our Registered Office is situated in not owned by us but taken on lease from Our Promoter and Director Pravinkumar Patel. The lease deed is valid for a period of eight years up to January 9, 2020 There can be no assurance that renewal of lease agreement with the owners of the premises will be entered into. In the event of non-renewal of lease, we may be required to shift our registered office to a new location and there can be no assurance that the arrangement we enter into in respect of new premises would be on such terms and conditions as the present one.For further details of properties please refer to the section titled "Our Business" beginning on page 135 of this Prospectus.

Page 23 of 444

20. Our Company does not have long-term agreements with any of land vendors for farm lands on which we undertake seed multiplication and is subject to uncertainties in availability which could hamper production, decrease sales and negatively affect its operating results. We do not have any long term agreements with any of land vendors for farm lands on which we undertake seed multiplication. In certain cases we do not have any agreements at all for use of land. As a result, our vendors can terminate their relationships with us due to a change in preference or any other reason upon relatively short notice, which could materially and adversely impact our business. Consequently, our revenue may be subject to variability in case production process gets hampered due to non availability of farm land. 21. Some of the agreements entered into by us with respect to our R & D Facilities, and other leasehold/leave and license premises are not adequately stamped and registered, resulting in making them inadmissible as evidence in legal proceedings. Any potential dispute vis-à-vis the said premises and our non-compliance of local laws relating to stamp duty and registration may adversely impact the continuance of our activity from such premises. Some of the agreements entered into by us with respect to our R & D Facilities and other leasehold/leave and license premises are not adequately stamped and registered. The effect of inadequate stamping is that the document is not admissible as evidence in legal proceedings and parties to that agreement may not be able to legally enforce the same, except after paying a penalty for inadequate stamping. The effect of non-registration, in certain cases, is to make the document inadmissible in legal proceedings. Any potential dispute vis-à-vis the said premises and our non- compliance of local laws relating to stamp duty and registration may adversely impact the continuance of our activity from such premises. 22. We significantly rely on our intellectual property, and failure to protect the property may adversely affect our ability to compete. Our success depends in part on the proprietary technology contained in our seed products. Generally protection of intellectual property in germplasm is done through a combination of various legal remedies and physical security procedures. We cannot be certain that the steps we have taken or will take to protect our intellectual property will adequately protect, or protect at all, our proprietary rights or that others will not independently develop or otherwise acquire equivalent or superior technology. Substantial part of our seed production comprises hybrids, which display traits which may be copied, through the acquisition of very small quantities of germplasm by our competitor(s) through misuse of our proprietary information or back crossing. Furthermore, licensors of intellectual property that we use may not be able to adequately protect and maintain the value of their intellectual property rights licensed to us, which may adversely affect our rights to use the licensed intellectual property. Attempting to protect our intellectual property, through litigation or otherwise, can be time consuming and expensive, have uncertain results and may be ineffective. If we are not ultimately successful in protecting and enforcing our intellectual property for any reason, we may experience a material adverse effect on our business, ultimately affecting our results of operations and financial condition. 23. Failure to obtain intellectual property rights from third parties could have a material adverse effect on our business. Due to the multi-dimensional nature of seed research being conducted, and also to utilize external professional expertise to expedite the process, partnerships with external collaborators, such as

Page 24 of 444

academic institutions and other research bodies, have become the norm in the industry. Our ability to further develop seed varieties may depend on whether we have the right to use applicable proprietary technologies, such as the licensing of germplasm or basic seed from third parties. We cannot assure that we would obtain the rights or licenses to use any of these technologies at all, or obtain them on terms and conditions which can be deemed favourable to us, since the same depends on various factors mainly outside our control. Some of these third-party technologies may be pivotal to, or necessary for our products and our business. Failure to obtain the rights to use technologies that are important to our business could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 24. We may be subject to claims of infringement of third-party intellectual property rights, which could adversely affect our business. While we take care to ensure that we comply with, and otherwise do not infringe, the intellectual property rights of third parties, we cannot always determine with certainty as to whether, in the course of our operations or research or otherwise, we are infringing upon any existing third-party intellectual property rights. Any claims of infringement, whether or not they are legally justifiable and irrespective of final resolution of the claim, could require us to incur significant costs in defending in original or appellate proceedings, resolving, settling, paying third party claims decreed against us, appealing against unfavourable decisions or simply responding to such third party claims. Such claims may also create a negative publicity or market perception and require significant amount to management time and attention which would divert their attention from our business. Further, we may be required, as a result of such claims, to alter our technologies or product inputs, conduct further research, discontinue certain operations or product lines or the same may otherwise prejudicially affect our operations. One or more of the aforesaid factors may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. 25. Our Company is yet to receive or apply for certain statutory approvals, licenses and clearance, which, if not, received, may adversely affect our business and financial condition. Our Company is required to obtain various regulatory approvals and registrations for our operations to establish and operate our facilities, and registrations with the relevant tax and labor authorities in India. Failure to obtain and maintain any required approvals and registrations may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Further, our approvals and registrations are subject to numerous conditions (including periodic reporting or audit requirements), some of which may require us to undertake substantial compliance-related expenditure. Breach or non-compliance with specified conditions may result in the suspension, revocation or cancelation of our approvals and registrations or the imposition of penalties by the relevant authorities.

If our Company fails to receive any of the approvals and/or licenses, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. While our Company typically applies for the renewal of any existing regulatory approvals prior to their expiry dates, there can be no assurance that our Company will receive such renewal in time or at all.

Our Company has not yet obtained certain statutory and regulatory approvals, registrations and licenses such as the Professional Tax Registration Certificate and the registration certificate under the Gujarat Shops and Establishments Act, 1948 for the research and development facilities of the

Page 25 of 444

Company. Such non-compliance may result in proceedings against our Company and the Directors and such actions may directly and immediately affect our operations.

In relation to the application made for trademark, please see the section titled “Government and other Statutory Approvals” on Page 298 of this Prospectus. In the event that our Company is unable to obtain such registration in a timely manner or at all, our business operations may be adversely affected. 26. Weather conditions, crop diseases and pest attacks could adversely affect the production of our seed products, as well as the demand for our seed products, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Our seed production activities and the Indian seeds industry are subject to substantially all the risks faced by the agriculture industry in India. Crop yields depend significantly on the absence of any crop disease or pest attacks and favourable weather conditions such as adequate rainfall and temperature, which vary from location to location. Adverse weather conditions such as windstorms, flood, drought or frost may cause crop failures and reduce harvests, which may adversely affect our operations. However, results of changes in weather and climatic conditions are difficult to predict and may affect crop planning and timing. In addition to factors such as soil quality and the use of fertilisers, weather conditions may also affect the presence of diseases and pests. Any of these factors may adversely affect our production of seeds. As we are obliged to pay our Seed Growing Farmers a mutually agreed compensation regardless of the seed yield, we bear the risks associated with bad weather and climatic conditions. Furthermore, if crop diseases and pests develop resistance to our products, this could adversely affect our Seed Growing Farmers’ crop yields. Additionally, we cannot assure you that adverse weather patterns in the future or potential crop diseases will not affect our ability to produce the desired quality or quantity of products to meet demand and in turn, their pricing. Any of these factors, or a combination thereof, can adversely affect the quality of our seeds, yield and inventory levels, could increase our cost of operations, strain our operating margins and reduce our operating revenue, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. 27. Product defects could adversely affect our business. Although seeds undergo extensive quality checks before they are processed, they may still contain defective or undesired characteristics that may be difficult to detect, with the available technology and tools at our dominion, prior to their sale and use. Since our seeds are used by farmers, any quality defects therein would directly affect the earnings of the farmer. Losses claimed by farmers may include the value of lost crops, which could greatly exceed the value of the seeds we sell. If defective or contaminated seeds are sold to a large number of farmers or over a geographically wide area, it may lead to a large-scale crop failure thus substantially increasing our potential liability for claims. The proper usage of seeds and adherence to recommended farm practices as well as the environment during crop period are all beyond our control once we sell the seed to our customer. Irrespective of the quality of the seeds, farmers may claim poor crop yields in one or more seasons as resulting from alleged seed defects, which may not exist or may be exaggerated, and seek to claim damages/compensation from us on that ground. Further, in order to attain the desired levels of crop yield, certain precautions like utilization of the soil application, proper application of fertilizers, timely application of pesticides, timely supply of water etc. have to be followed. Moreover, weather conditions must be favourable. In the event of any errors on the part of the farmers, or adverse weather conditions, they may claim defects in the quality of the seed. However, ascertained product defects can not be determined in percentage terms though we face claims for

Page 26 of 444

product defects. Furthermore, we are subject to government regulations and periodic government inspections. We believe that our processing plants/facilities comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations, we cannot assure that use of our products will not expose us to costly and time-consuming litigations/claims and lead to negative publicity about the quality of our products, further affecting our sales and performance. Any of the aforesaid factors would have a material adverse effect on business, financial condition and results of operations. 28. The use of pesticides and other hazardous substance in our operations may lead to loss of nutrients in the seeds produced and also may lead to environmental damage and result in increased costs Hybrid seed production involves high usage of pesticides and other hazardous substance. We may also have to pay for the costs or damages associated with the improper application, accidental release or the use or misuse of these substances. In these cases, payment of costs or damages could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Hybrid seed production involves high usage of pesticides and other hazardous substance, using pesticides in such an increased quantity could lead to loss of nutrients in the seeds which make them less attractive from that of organically produced seeds.. 29. Hybrid plants are sensitive and prone to diseases Hybrid seed production involves more usage of fertilisers and pesticides and other hazardous substance and thus making the seeds more sensitive and prone to disease with that compared to natural seeds. 30. Our inability to maintain the stability of our distribution network and attract additional high- quality dealers may have an adverse affect on our results of operations and financial condition. The challenge in the agri-inputs business lies in reaching a geographically dispersed end-user at the right time, at the right place with the right product. We rely on our distribution network and dealerships to reach the end customer, that is the farmer, and distribute, market and sell our agri- input products in each of the regions in which we operate. Competition for seed and other agri- inputs dealers is intense. Hence, our business is dependent on maintaining good relationships with our distributors and dealers and ensuring that our distributors and dealers find our products to be commercially remunerative and have continuing demand from farmers. Furthermore, our growth as a business depends on our ability to attract additional high-quality dealerships to our distribution network. There can be no assurance that our current distributors and dealers will continue to do business with us, or that we can continue to attract additional distributors and dealers to our network. If we do not succeed in maintaining the stability of our distribution network and attracting additional high-quality dealers to our distribution network, our market share may decline and our products may not reach the end customers, materially adversely affecting our results of operations and financial condition. 31. Our cash flow has been negative in some years. In the event that our future cash flows continue to be negative, it may hamper our ability to meet our financial obligations. Cash flow of a company is a key indicator to show the extent of cash generated from operations to meet capital expenditure, pay dividends, repay loans and make new investments without raising finance from external resources.

Any operating losses or negative cash flows could adversely affect our results of operations and financial conditions. Our Company is a new company and is in initial phases of its life cycle where the operating & investing cash flows are generally negative due to investments in fixed assets and working capital. 32. Our logos/trademarks for some of our products are in the process of getting registered We have made an application for registration of our logos/trademarks of our ceratin products under the Trademarks Act, 1999 and are in the process of getting the same registered. If we are unable to obtain registration of trademarks, we may not be able to successfully enforce or protect our intellectual property rights and obtain statutory protections available under the Trademarks Act, 1999, as otherwise available for registered trademarks. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, which in turn could adversely affect our results of operations. 33. Our ability to deliver our products in a timely manner is crucial to our business and results of operations Availability of the seed variety before crop season is crucial for our business. Crop yields depend significantly on the absence of any crop disease or pest attacks and favourable weather conditions such as adequate rainfall and temperature. Adverse weather conditions such as windstorms, flood, drought or frost may cause crop failures and reduce harvests, which may adversely affect our operations. However, results of changes in weather and climatic conditions are difficult to predict and may affect crop planning and timing. In addition to factors such as soil quality and the use of fertilisers, weather conditions may also affect the presence of diseases and pests. Any of these factors may adversely affect our production of seeds. We also rely on third party transporters for transportation and delivery of our products. Factors such as unavailability of transport services, damage or loss of goods in transit, strikes, natural disasters etc. can interrupt the delivery of our products and affect our business and results of operations. 34. Our Company requires significant amounts of working capital for a continued growth. Our inability to meet our working capital requirements may have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Our business is working capital intensive. Major portion of our working capital is utilized towards inventory and Trade Receivable. Summary of our working capital position is given below:- (Rs.

The seeds business is working capital intensive and involves a lot of investment in inventory as well as Trade Receivables. We intend to continue growing by reaching out to more farmers in newer areas and also increasing the sales in the existing areas. All these factors may result in increase in the quantum of current assets. Our inability to maintain sufficient cash flow, credit facility and other sources of fund, in a timely manner, or at all, to meet the requirement of working capital or pay out debts, could adversely affect our financial condition and result of our operations. For further details regarding working capital requirement, please refer to the chapter titled “Objects of the Issue” beginning on page 104 of this Prospectus. 35. Our Promoters, promoter group and certain shareholders have given personal guarantees in relation to certain debt facilities provided to us, which if revoked may require alternative guarantees, repayment of amounts due or termination of the facilities. Our Promoters and members of Promoter Group i.e. Pravinkumar Patel, Mafatlal Patel, Dhanajibhai Patel, Revabhai Patel, Narsinbhai Patel and Kalpeshbhai Patel have given personal guarantees in relation to debt facilities provided to us by HDFC Bank Limited.Further, Pravinkumar Patel and Mafatlala Patel have offered their property as collateral in relation to debt facilities provided to us by HDFC Bank Limited. The facilities sanctioned (Working Capital) amounts to Rs. 400 lakhs. In the event that any of these guarantees/collaterals are revoked, the lenders for such facilities may require alternate guarantees, repayment of amounts outstanding under such facilities, or even terminate such facilities. We may not be successful in procuring guarantees satisfactory to the lenders, and as a result may need to repay outstanding amounts under such facilities or seek additional sources of capital, which could significantly affect our financial condition and cash flows. 36. Within the parameters as mentioned in the chapter titled ‘Objects of this Issue’ beginning on page 104 of this Prospectus, our Company’s management will have flexibility in applying the proceeds of this Issue. The fund requirement and deployment mentioned in the Objects of this Issue have not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. We intend to use fresh Issue Proceeds towards working capital needs and to meet the issue expenses. We intend to deploy the Net Issue Proceeds in FY 2015-2016 and such deployment is

Page 29 of 444

based on certain assumptions and strategy which our Company believes to implement in future. The funds raised from the fresh Issue may remain idle on account of change in assumptions, market conditions, strategy of our Company, etc., For further details on the use of the Issue Proceeds, please refer chapter titled "Objects of the Issue" beginning on page 104 of this Prospectus.

The deployment of funds for the purposes described above is at the discretion of our Company’s Board of Directors. The fund requirement and deployment is based on internal management estimates and has not been appraised by any bank or financial institution. Accordingly, within the parameters as mentioned in the chapter titled ‘Objects of this Issue’ beginning on page 104 of this Prospectus, the Management will have significant flexibility in applying the proceeds received by our Company from the Issue. However, the company shall comply with Section 27 of the Companies Act, 2013 before varying the Objects of the Issue. Our Board of Directors will monitor the utilisation of the proceeds of this Issue

37. Our Company has availed secured loans, majority of which are repayable on demand. We have availed cash credit facilities aggregating to approximately Rs. 400 lakhs as on March 31, 2015. For further details in relation to the loans and advances, please refer section titled “Financial Statements” beginning on page 220 of this Prospectus. These loans may be called at any time by the lenders. In the event that these loans are required to be re-paid on a short notice, our Company may have to arrange for additional funds which may impact our financials. 38. Our Promoters and members of the Promoter Group will continue jointly to retain majority control over our Company after the Issue, which will allow them to determine the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders for approval. Post this Issue, our Promoters and Promoter Group will collectively own substantial portion of our equity share capital. As a result, our Promoters, together with the members of the Promoter Group, will continue to exercise a significant degree of influence over us and will be able to control the outcome of any proposal that can be approved by a majority shareholder vote, including, the election of members to our Board, in accordance with the Companies Act and our Articles of Association. Such a concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of our Company. In addition, our Promoters will continue to have the ability to cause us to take actions that are not in, or may conflict with, our interests or the interests of some or all of our creditors or other shareholders, and we cannot assure you that such actions will not have an adverse effect on our future financial performance or the price of our Equity Shares. 39. Our insurance policies do not cover all risks, specifically risks like product defect/liability risk, loss of profits, etc. In the event of the occurrence of such events, our insurance coverage may not adequately protect us against possible risk of loss. While we believe that we maintain insurance coverage in adequate amounts consistent with size of our business, our insurance policies do not cover all risks, specifically risks like product defect/liability risk and loss of profits and, are subject to exclusions and deductibles. There can be no assurance that our insurance policies will be adequate to cover the losses in respect of which the insurance has been availed. If we suffer a significant uninsured loss or if insurance claim in respect of the subject-matter of insurance is not accepted or any insured loss suffered by us significantly exceeds our insurance coverage, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. For details on the insurance policies taken by our Company,

Page 30 of 444

please refer to page , under the head ‘Insurance’ in the section titled ‘Our Business’ beginning on page 135 of this Prospectus. 40. Our future funds requirements, in the form of fresh issue of capital or securities and/or loans taken by us, may be prejudicial to the interest of the shareholders depending upon the terms on which they are eventually raised. We may require additional capital from time to time depending on our business needs. Any fresh issue of shares or convertible securities would dilute the shareholding of the existing shareholders and such issuance may be done on terms and conditions, which may not be favourable to the then existing shareholders. If such funds are raised in the form of loans or debt, then it may substantially increase our interest burden and decrease our cash flows, thus prejudicially affecting our profitability and ability to pay dividends to our shareholders. 41. Our entire production facility is located in the state of Gujarat. Further we generate our major sales from our operations in certain geographical regions especially Gujarat and Rajasthan. Any adverse developments affecting our operations in these regions could have an adverse impact on our revenue and results of operations. Our Company currently carries on its production activities only in the state of Gujarat. Further our major customer base is concentrated in certain regions in the state of Gujarat and Rajasthan. Such geographical concentration of our business in these regions heightens our exposure to adverse developments related to competition, as well as economic and demographic changes in these regions which may adversely affect our business prospects, financial conditions and results of operations. We may not be able to leverage our experience in regions of Gujarat and Rajasthan to expand our operations in other parts of India and overseas markets. Factors such as competition, culture, regulatory regimes, business practices and customs, industry needs, transportation, in other markets where we may expand our operations may differ from those in Gujarat & Rajasthan, and our experience in these places may not be applicable to other markets. In addition, as we enter new markets and geographical areas, we are likely to compete not only with national and international players, but also local players who might have an established local presence, are more familiar with local regulations, business practices and industry needs, have stronger relationships with local contractors, farmers, relevant government authorities, and who are in a stronger financial position than us, all of which may give them a competitive advantage over us. Our inability to expand into areas outside our present market may adversely affect our business prospects, financial conditions and results of operations. While our management believes that the Company has requisite expertise and vision to grow and mark its presence in other markets going forward, investors should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks, losses and challenges faced by us and should not rely on our results of operations for any prior periods as an indication of our future performance. 42. Consumer resistance to genetically modified seeds may negatively affect our public image. We have commenced marketing of Bt. Cotton, which is GM (Genetically Modified) seed. In many parts of the world, including certain states in Australia (i.e. Western Australia, Tasmania, New South Wales and Victoria), New Zealand, Peru and Mexico, the planting of GM crops is currently not allowed pending concrete scientific data on its long term impact on the environment and human safety. There is currently vocal opposition in many countries of the world including India as regards use of GM seeds and this opposition can be attributed to the lack of evidence on the impact of GM crops on the surrounding environment, on human health and any potential resultant loss of plant

Page 31 of 444

material to farmers. This opposition may limit the scope of further technological progress in this area. Further, government authorities at central, state or local levels might restrict or prohibit or seek to restrict or prohibit the development, production, use and/or publicity of GM seeds, enact regulations regarding the use of genetically modified organisms that may delay and limit or even prohibit the development and sale of such products. In the case of such events our plans of coming out with genetically modified seeds and our results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. 43. Our lenders have imposed certain restrictive conditions on us under our financing arrangements. Under our financing arrangements, we are required to obtain the prior, written lender consent for, among other matters, changes in our capital structure, formulate a scheme of amalgamation or reconstruction and entering into any other borrowing arrangement. Further, we are required to maintain certain financial ratios. There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with these financial or other covenants or that we will be able to obtain the consents necessary to take the actions we believe are necessary to operate and grow our business. Our level of existing debt and any new debt that we incur in the future has important consequences. Any failure to comply with these requirements or other conditions or covenants under our financing agreements that is not waived by our lenders or is not otherwise cured by us, may require us to repay the borrowing in whole or part and may include other related costs. Our Company may be forced to sell some or all of its assets or limit our operations. This may adversely affect our ability to conduct our business and impair our future growth plans. For further information, see the chapter titled “Financial Indebtedness” on page 288 of this Prospectus. Though these covenants are restrictive to some extent to us however it ensures financial discipline, which would help us in the long run to improve our financial performance. 44. Our ability to pay dividends will depend upon future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other factors. The amount of our future dividend payments, if any, will depend upon various factors such as our future earnings, financial condition, cash flows, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other factors. There can be no assurance that we shall have distributable funds or that we will declare dividends in the future. Additionally, the terms of any financing we obtain in the future, may contain restrictive covenants which may also affect some of the rights of our shareholders, including the payment of the dividend. 45. We have not made any alternate arrangements for meeting our capital requirements for the Objects of the issue. Further we have not identified any alternate source of financing the ‘Objects of the Issue’. Any shortfall in raising / meeting the same could adversely affect our growth plans, operations and financial performance. As on date, we have not made any alternate arrangements for meeting our capital requirements for the objects of the issue. We meet our capital requirements through bank finance, owned funds and internal accruals. Any shortfall in our net owned funds, internal accruals and our inability to raise debt in future would result in us being unable to meet our capital requirements, which in turn will negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations. Further we have not identified any alternate source of funding and hence any failure or delay on our part to raise money from this issue or any shortfall in the issue proceeds may delay the implementation schedule and could adversely affect our growth plans. For further details please refer to the chapter titled “Objects of the Issue” beginning on page 104 of this Prospectus.

Page 32 of 444

46. We have issued Equity Shares in the last twelve months, the price of which is lower than the Issue Price. Our Company has made two bonus Issues of 3,50,000 Shares and 20,18,251 on March 16, 2015 and May 08, 2015 respectively in the last twelve months. For further details of Equity Shares issued, please refer to chapter titled, ’Capital Structure’ beginning on page 72 of this Prospectus. 47. We have in the past entered into related party transactions and may continue to do so in the future. Our Company has entered into transactions with our certain related parties. While we believe that all such transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis, there can be no assurance that we could not have achieved more favourable terms had such transactions not been entered into with related parties. Furthermore, it is likely that we will enter into related party transactions in the future. There can be no assurance that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.

For details on the transactions entered by us, please refer to section “Related Party Transactions” in Section “Financial Statements” beginning on page 220 of this Prospectus.

48. Our Directors, Promoters and key management personnel may have interests in us other than reimbursement of expenses incurred or normal remuneration or benefits. Our Promoters and our Directors are interested in our Company to the extent of their shareholding and dividend entitlement in our Company. Our Directors are also interested in our Company to the extent of remuneration paid to them for services rendered as Directors of our Company and reimbursement of expenses payable to them. Our Directors and Promoters are also interested in transactions between our Company and certain Group Companies and members of our Promoter Group in which they are either directors or shareholders. Additionally, our Directors, Promoters and key management personnel may have a conflict of interest to the extent that they are involved with any ventures which are engaged in the same line of activity or business as that of the Company. For further details, see the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations––Related Party Transactions” and Annexure XXV to our restated financial statements in the section titled “Financial Statements” on pages 275 and 220, respectively. B. Risk relating to the Issue

49. Sale of Equity Shares by our Promoter or other significant shareholder(s) may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares. Any instance of disinvestments of equity shares by our Promoter or by other significant shareholder(s) may significantly affect the trading price of our Equity Shares. Further, our market price may also be adversely affected even if there is a perception or belief that such sales of Equity Shares might occur.

50. There are restrictions on daily movements in the price of the Equity Shares, which may adversely affect a shareholder’s ability to sell, or the price at which it can sell, Equity Shares at a particular point in time. Once listed, we would be subject to circuit breakers imposed by all stock exchanges in India, which does not allow transactions beyond specified increases or decreases in the price of the Equity Shares. This circuit breaker operates independently of the index-based market-wide circuit breakers

Page 33 of 444

generally imposed by SEBI on Indian stock exchanges. The percentage limit on circuit breakers is set by the stock exchanges based on the historical volatility in the price and trading volume of the Equity Shares. The stock exchanges do not inform us of the percentage limit of the circuit breaker in effect from time to time, and may change it without our knowledge. This circuit breaker limits the upward and downward movements in the price of the Equity Shares. As a result of this circuit breaker, no assurance may be given regarding your ability to sell your Equity Shares or the price at which you may be able to sell your Equity Shares at any particular time.

51. After this Issue, the price of the Equity Shares may be highly volatile, or an active trading market for the Equity Shares may not develop. The price of the Equity Shares on the Stock Exchanges may fluctuate as a result of factors, including: a. Volatility in the Indian and global capital market; b. Company’s results of operations and financial performance; c. Performance of Company’s competitors; d. Adverse media reports on the Company or pertaining to the seed Industry; e. Changes in our estimates of performance or recommendations by financial analysts; f. Significant developments in India’s economic and fiscal policies;

Current valuations may not be sustainable in the future and may also not be reflective of future valuations for our industry and our Company. There has been no public market for the Equity Shares and the prices of the Equity Shares may fluctuate after this Issue. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Equity Shares will develop or be sustained after this Issue or that the price at which the Equity Shares are initially traded will correspond to the price at which the Equity Shares will trade in the market subsequent to this Issue.

52. The Issue price of our Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity Shares after the Issue and the market price of our Equity Shares may decline below the issue price and you may not be able to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price. The Issue Price of our Equity Shares has been determined by fixed price method. This price is be based on numerous factors (For further information, please refer chapter titled “Basis for Issue Price” beginning on page 110 of this Prospectus) and may not be indicative of the market price of our Equity Shares after the Issue. The market price of our Equity Shares could be subject to significant fluctuations after the Issue, and may decline below the Issue Price. We cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price. Among the factors that could affect our share price include without limitation. The following:  Half yearly variations in the rate of growth of our financial indicators, such as earnings per share, net income and revenues;  Changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports by analysts;  Speculation in the press or investment community;  General market conditions; and

Page 34 of 444

 Domestic and international economic, legal and regulatory factors unrelated to our performance. 53. You will not be able to sell immediately on Indian Stock Exchanges any of the Equity Shares you purchase in the Issue until the Issue receives appropriate trading permissions. The Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchange. Pursuant to Indian regulations, certain actions must be completed before the Equity Shares can be listed and trading may commence. We cannot assure you that the Equity Shares will be credited to investor’s demat accounts, or that trading in the Equity Shares will commence, within the time periods specified in this Prospectus. Any failure or delay in obtaining the approval would restrict your ability to dispose of the Equity Shares. In accordance with section 40 of the Companies Act,2013 in the event that the permission of listing the Equity Shares is denied by the stock exchanges, we are required to refund all monies collected to investors.

In accordance with Indian law and practice, permission for listing and trading of the Equity Shares issued pursuant to the Issue will not be granted until after the Equity Shares have been issued and allotted. Approval for listing and trading will require all relevant documents authorizing the issuing of Equity Shares to be submitted. There could be a failure or delay in listing the Equity Shares on the SME Platform of BSE. Any failure or delay in obtaining the approval would restrict your ability to dispose of your Equity Shares.

EXTERNAL RISK FACTORS

55. Political, economic or other factors that are beyond our control may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. The following external risks may have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations should any of them materialize:  A change in the central or state government or a change in the economic and deregulation policies could adversely affect economic conditions prevalent in the areas in which we operate in general and our business in particular;  High rates of inflation in India could increase our costs without proportionately increasing our revenues, and as such decrease our operating margins; and  A slowdown in economic growth or financial instability in India could adversely affect our business and results of operations.  Civil unrest, acts of violence, terrorists attacks, regional conflicts or situations or war involving India or other countries could materially and adversely affect the financial markets which could impact our business. Such incidents could impact economic growth or create a perception that investment in Indian companies could involve higher degree in risk which could reduce the value of the equity shares.  National disasters in India may disrupt or adversely affect the Indian economy which in turn may affect the health of our business

Page 35 of 444

 Any downgrading of Indian Sovereignty rating by international credit rating agencies may negatively impact our business and access to capital 56. The Companies Act, 2013 has effected significant changes to the existing Indian company law framework, which may subject us to higher compliance requirements and increase our compliance costs. A majority of the provisions and rules under the Companies Act, 2013 have recently been notified and have come into effect from the date of their respective notification, resulting in the corresponding provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 ceasing to have effect. The Companies Act, 2013 has brought into effect significant changes to the Indian company law framework, such as in the provisions related to issue of capital, disclosures in Prospectus, corporate governance norms, audit matters, related party transactions, introduction of a provision allowing the initiation of class action suits in India against companies by shareholders or depositors, a restriction on investment by an Indian company through more than two layers of subsidiary investment companies (subject to certain permitted exceptions), prohibitions on loans to directors and insider trading and restrictions on directors and key managerial personnel from engaging in forward dealing. To ensure compliance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 2013, we may need to allocate additional resources, which may increase our regulatory compliance costs and divert management attention. The Companies Act, 2013 introduced certain additional requirements which do not have corresponding equivalents under the Companies Act, 1956. Accordingly, we may face challenges in interpreting and complying with such provisions due to limited jurisprudence on them. In the event, our interpretation of such provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 differs from, or contradicts with, any judicial pronouncements or clarifications issued by the Government in the future, we may face regulatory actions or we may be required to undertake remedial steps. We may face difficulties in complying with any such overlapping requirements. Further, we cannot currently determine the impact of provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 which are yet to come in force. Any increase in our compliance requirements or in our compliance costs may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. 57. Significant differences exist between Indian GAAP and other accounting principles, such as U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which may be material to the financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with SEBI ICDR Regulations contained in this Prospectus. The “Financial Statements” beginning from page 220 included in this Prospectus are based on the audited financial statements that are prepared and presented in conformity with Indian GAAP and restated in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations, and no attempt has been made to reconcile any of the information given in this Prospectus to any other principles or to base it on any other standards. Indian GAAP differs from accounting principles and auditing standards with which prospective investors may be familiar in other countries, such as U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Significant differences exist between Indian GAAP and U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which may be material to the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with Indian GAAP contained in this Prospectus. Accordingly, the degree to which the financial information included in this Prospectus will provide meaningful information is dependent on familiarity with Indian GAAP, the Companies Act and the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian GAAP on the financial disclosures presented in this Prospectus should accordingly be limited.

58. The nationalized goods and services tax ( GST) regimes proposed by the Government of India may have material impact on our operations The Government of India has propose a comprehensive national goods and service tax (GST) regime that will combine taxes and levies by the Central and State Governments into a unified rate structure. Given the limited liability of information in the public domain covering the GST we are unable to provide/ measure the impact this tax regime may have on our operations. 59. You may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of the Equity Shares. Under current Indian tax laws and regulations, capital gains arising from the sale of equity shares in an Indian company are generally taxable in India. Any gain realised on the sale of shares on a stock exchange held for more than 12 months will not be subject to capital gains tax in India if the securities transaction tax (“STT”) has been paid on the transaction. The STT will be levied on and collected by an Indian stock exchange on which equity shares are sold. Any gain realised on the sale of shares held for more than 12 months to an Indian resident, which are sold other than on a recognised stock exchange and as a result of which no STT has been paid, will be subject to long term capital gains tax in India. Further, any gain realised on the sale of shares held for a period of 12 months or less will be subject to capital gains tax in India. Further, any gain realised on the sale of listed equity shares held for a period of 12 months or less which are sold other than on a recognised stock exchange and on which no STT has been paid, will be subject to short term capital gains tax at a relatively higher rate as compared to the transaction where STT has been paid in India. 60.

62. Natural calamities could have a negative impact on the Indian economy and cause Our Company's business to suffer. India has experienced natural calamities such as earthquakes, tsunami, floods etc. in recent years. The extent and severity of these natural disasters determine their impact on the Indian economy. Prolonged spells of abnormal rainfall or other natural calamities could have a negative impact on the Indian economy, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operation as well as the price of the Equity Shares. 63. Terrorist attacks, civil unrests and other acts of violence or war involving India or other countries could adversely affect the financial markets, our business, financial condition and the price of our Equity Shares. Any major hostilities involving India or other acts of violence, including civil unrest or similar events that are beyond our control, could have a material adverse effect on India’s economy and our business. Incidents such as the terrorist attacks, other incidents such as those in US, Indonesia, Madrid and London, and other acts of violence may adversely affect the Indian stock markets where our Equity Shares will trade as well the global equity markets generally. Such acts could negatively impact business sentiment as well as trade between countries, which could adversely affect our Company’s business and profitability. Additionally, such events could have a material adverse effect on the market for securities of Indian companies, including the Equity Shares. 64. Any downgrading of India’s sovereign rating by an independent agency may harm our ability to raise financing. Any adverse revisions to India's credit ratings for domestic and international debt by international rating agencies may adversely impact our ability to raise additional financing, and the interest rates and other commercial terms at which such additional financing may be available. This could have an adverse effect on our business and future financial performance, our ability to obtain financing for capital expenditures and the trading price of our Equity Shares. 65. Financial instability in Indian financial markets could adversely affect our Company’s results of operations and financial condition. In this globalized world, the Indian economy and financial markets are significantly influenced by worldwide economic, financial and market conditions. Any financial turmoil, say in the United States of America, Europe, China or other emerging economies, may have a negative impact on the Indian economy. Although economic conditions differ in each country, investors’ reactions to any significant developments in one country can have adverse effects on the financial and market conditions in other countries. A loss in investor confidence in the financial systems, particularly in other emerging markets, may cause increased volatility in Indian financial markets. Indian financial markets have also experienced the contagion effect of the global financial turmoil. Any prolonged financial crisis may have an adverse impact on the Indian economy, thereby resulting in a material and adverse effect on our Company's business, operations, and financial condition PROMINENT NOTES 1.

INDIAN ECONOMIC REVIEW One of the redeeming features, while comparing economic performance across different countries for the year 2014-15, has been the emergence of India among the few large economies with propitious economic outlook, amidst the mood of pessimism and uncertainties that engulf a number of advanced and emerging economies. Brighter prospects in India owe mainly to the fact that the economy stands largely relieved of the vulnerabilities associated with an economic slowdown, persistent inflation, elevated fiscal deficit, slackening domestic demand, external account imbalances, and oscillating value of the rupee in 2011-12 and 2012-13. From the macroeconomic perspective, the worst is clearly behind us. The latest indicators, emerging from the recently revised estimates of national income brought out by the Central Statistics Office, point to the fact that the revival of growth had started in 2013-14 and attained further vigour in 2014-15. Factors like the steep decline in oil prices, plentiful flow of funds from the rest of the world, and potential impact of the reform initiatives of the new government at the centre along with its commitment to calibrated fiscal management and consolidation bode well for the growth prospects and the overall macroeconomic situation. Encouraged by the greater macro-economic stability and the reformist intent and actions of the government, coupled with improved business sentiments in the country, institutions like the IMF and the World Bank have presented an optimistic growth outlook for India for the year 2015 and beyond. The possible headwinds to such promising prospects, however, emanate from factors like inadequate support from the global economy saddled with subdued demand conditions, particularly in Europe and Japan, recent slowdown in China, and, on the domestic front, from possible spill-overs of below normal agricultural growth and challenges relating to the massive requirements of skill creation and infrastructural upgradation. The encouraging results from the Advance Estimates for 2014-15 suggest that though the global sluggishness has partly fed into the lacklustre growth in foreign trade; yet this downward pressure has been compensated by strong domestic demand, keeping the growth momentum going. (Source – Economic Survey 2014-2015) Outlook for 2015-16 The macroeconomic situation in India has improved significantly during the current year. The release of the new series of national accounts revealed that the economy has been performing much better than what was being depicted earlier. The steady acceleration in services and manufacturing growth in the face of subdued global demand conditions point to the strengthening of domestic demand. Most of the

Page 41 of 444

buoyancy in domestic demand can be traced to consumption. Investment activity, which is slowly picking up. The savings-investment dynamics will be crucial for the growth to strengthen further in the coming years, in addition to reversal of the subdued export performance being currently witnessed. The key will be the response of savings to improved price and financial market stability, and of investment, particularly in the crucial infrastructure sector, to reform efforts of the Government that are underway. On the supply side, there are concerns about tentative growth patterns in construction and mining activities that need to be addressed to. This is particularly important in view of the strong intersectoral linkages that these sectors have. The farm sector suffered from a relatively poor monsoon, but there are no indications of its spillover to be next year. The improving rate of value addition in the economy, represented by the ratio of value added to output, and the falling incremental capital output ratio indicate better resource use in production. On the global front, the United States radiates confidence and strength, while some other structurally important economies like China, Russia, Euro area and Japan face uncertain prospects, thereby affecting global growth and investment outlook. The sharp decline in oil prices has provided an incentive for overall global growth and stability. At the same time, it has diminished fortunes of oil exporting countries that can influence economic activity adversely. In the light of the Government’s commitment to reforms, along with the improvements in price and external sector scenarios including the possibility of international oil prices remaining generally benign, the outlook for domestic macroeconomic parameters is generally optimistic, notwithstanding the uncertainties that could also arise from an increase in interest rates in the United States and situation prevailing in Greece within Euro-zone. Given the above, and assuming normal monsoons better prospects in the world economy that could provide impetus to higher exports for Indian products and services, a growth of around 8.5 per cent is in the realm of possibility in 2015-16.

AGRICULTURE SECTOR IN INDIA

Introduction

Despite the focus on industrialisation, agriculture remains a dominant sector of the Indian economy both in terms of contribution to gross domestic product (GDP) as well as a source of employment to millions across the country. Agriculture plays a vital role in the Indian economy. Over 70 per cent of the rural households depend on agriculture as their principal means of livelihood. Agriculture, along with fisheries and forestry, accounts for one-third of the nation’s GDP and is its single largest contributor. The total Share of Agriculture & Allied Sectors (Including agriculture, livestock, forestry and fishery sub sectors) in terms of percentage of GDP is 13.9 percent during 2013-14 at 2004-05 prices. [As per the estimates released by Central Statistics Office] Agricultural exports constitute a fifth of the total exports of the country. In view of the predominant position of the Agricultural Sector, collection and maintenance of Agricultural Statistics assume great importance. The country is also the largest producer, consumer and exporter of spices and spice products in the world and overall in farm and agriculture outputs, it is ranked second. From canned, dairy, processed, frozen food to fisheries, meat, poultry, and food grains, the Indian agro industry has plenty of areas to choose for business.

Page 42 of 444

The Department of Agriculture and Cooperation under the Ministry of Agriculture is the nodal organisation responsible for the development of the agriculture sector in India. Under it, several other bodies such as the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) work for the development of other allied agricultural sectors. Market Size There are multiple factors that have predominantly worked in tandem leading to the growth of the Indian agriculture sector in recent years. These include growth in income and consumption, growth in food processing sector and increase in agricultural exports. Also, increasing private participation in Indian agriculture, growing organic farming and usage of information technology are the trends that are being witnessed by the agriculture industry. As per the 4th Advance Estimates of Production of food grains for 2013-14, total food grain production is estimated to be 264.77 million tonnes (MT).  With an annual output of 130 MT, India is the largest producer of the milk in the world. It also has the largest milk-producing animal population of over 118 million. However, milk yields per animal are among the lowest in the world.  India is the biggest producer of pulses in the world at 19 MT and their biggest importer 3.5 MT.  India is the second largest producer of sugar in the world and the government has aimed to increase the exports from 1.3 MT in 2013 to an average of 2 MT in 2014 and 2015. Spice exports from India are expected to reach US$ 3 billion by 2016-17, on the back of creative marketing strategies, innovative packaging, strength in quality and a strong distribution network. The Indian spices market is pegged at Rs 40,000 crore (US$ 6.42 billion) annually, of which the branded segment accounts for 15 per cent. In 2013-14 India achieved a record food grain production of 264 MT, beating the previous year's (2012- 13) 257 MT, according to data provided by Department of Economics and Statistics (DES). Also, agricultural profitability has increased over the last decade with record increases in MSPs (minimum support prices) for agricultural produce for all covered crops.

Page 43 of 444

Road Ahead The Indian agriculture sector is expected to grow with better momentum in the next few years owing to increase in investment in agricultural infrastructure such as irrigation facilities, warehousing and cold storage. Factors such as reduced transaction costs, time, better port gate management and fiscal incentives will also contribute to this upward trend. Furthermore, the increased use of genetically modified crops is also expected to better the yield of the Indian farmers. The 12th Five Year Plan’s estimates of expanding the storage capacity to 35 MT and the target of achieving an overall growth of 4 per cent will also go a long way in modifying the overall face of the Indian agriculture sector in the next few years.

INDIAN SEED INDUSTRY Overview Quality seeds and planting materials are the key agricultural inputs, which determine the productivity of the crops. The efficacy of other agricultural inputs such as fertilizers, pesticides and irrigation is largely determined by the quality of the seed used. It is estimated that quality of seed accounts for 20-25% of productivity. Hence timely availability of quality seeds at affordable prices to farmers is necessary for achieving higher agricultural productivity and production. The varied agro climatic conditions of the country are suitable for cultivation of large number of crops and varieties. This necessitates production of quality seeds and planting materials for a huge range of crops for achieving the targeted production. The organized sector comprising of both the private and public sector accounts for about 15 to 20% of the total seed distributed in the country. The remaining portion is contributed by the unorganized sector comprising mainly of farm-saved seeds. Prudent mechanism for seed certification, testing, labelling and enforcement is necessary to maintain seed quality. Varietal development, plant variety protection, seed production, quality assurance, creation of infrastructure for seeds, transgenics, import of planting material, export of seeds and promotion of domestic seed industry are necessary for a vibrant seed industry. An enabling environment for speedy trial and evaluation of imported seeds for the betterment of agriculture production in the country is necessary.

Page 44 of 444

The Seeds Bill, 2004 has been introduced in the Parliament to overcome the limitation of Seeds Act 1966, and provides for the regulation of seed quality and planting material of all agricultural, horticultural and plantation crops with the view to ensure availability of true to type seeds to Indian farmers; curb sale of spurious and poor quality seeds; protection of rights of farmers, increase private participation in seed production, distribution and seed testing; liberalize imports of seeds and planting material, and align with World Trade Organization (WTO) commitments and international standards, needs to be enacted with utmost urgency. The seed multiplication ratio from Breeder seed to Foundation seed and from Foundation seed to Certified seed needs to be addressed by all the seed producing agencies, both in public and private sectors. Comprehensive and authentic database on seed production and distribution in India by public and private sectors needs to be built for the benefit of all the stakeholders. There is need to ensure adequate and timely availability of seed through appropriate tie ups with NSC, SFCI, State Seed Corporations etc., popularize Good Agricultural Practices (GAP), enhance Seed Replacement Ratio to 20-25% in pulses and 20% in case of groundnut, popularize new farming techniques like ridge-furrow sowing, deep ploughing, zero seed drill and seed (Source: State of Indian Agriculture 2012-2013) Evolution of the Seed Industry

1960s – Mid 1980s Mid 1980s – 1990s Current Status

Strict regulatory regime: Seed Seed Industry boom due to Private Sector accounts for ~80% Act, 1966; Seed Rules, 1968 several government initiatives turnover in seed Industry

INDUSTRY DRIVERS As key agricultural inputs, seed products have the following common industry drivers: 1. Population growth A fundamental driver for the increase in demand for crops is global population growth. The United Nations projects that world population will increase from 6.8 Billion in 2009 and will surpass 9 billion people by 2050. India’s population also has grown at a steady pace in past few years.

(Source:http://censusindia.gov.in/2011-prov-results/data_files/india/Final_PPT_2011_chapter3.pdf)

Page 47 of 444

The population of India is expected to increase from 1029 million to 1400 million during the period 2001-2026 - an increase of 36 percent in twenty- five years at the rate of 1.2 percent annually as per the report of the technical group on population projections constituted by the national commission on population May 2006 titled “Population Projections for India and States 2001-2026” 2. Land availability Arable land is scarce in many parts of the world and under pressure from urbanization and industrial uses. It can be seen from the table below that the area under cultivation in since 2000-01 has more or less been stagnant. Accordingly, there is continual pressure to increase the productivity of available resources.

(Source: Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India, RBI Website). 3. National Seed Mission A need was felt, in the current scenario, to upgrade and expand the existing scheme ‘Development and Strengthening of Infrastructure Facilities for Production and Distribution of Quality Seeds’ (DPQS) into a National Mission with a focused, time bound and integrated approach to further improve the availability of quality seeds to the farmers. Hence, it is proposed to launch a Mini- Mission on “Seeds and Planting Material” under the new Centrally Sponsored Scheme “National Mission on Agricultural Extension and Technology” during Twelfth Five Year Plan. The Mission includes seed planning, seed production, varietal replacement, seed infrastructure, quality control, specific interventions for seed PSUs, contingency planning, assistance to private sector, international cooperation, etc. These and other such incentives are expected to boost production of seeds in India.

4. National Food Security Mission The National Food Security Mission is presently under implementation in 482 Districts of 19 States of the country with a view to enhance the production of Rice, Wheat and Pulses through area expansion and productivity enhancement; restoring soil fertility and productivity; creating employment opportunities; and enhancing farm level economy to restore confidence of farmers. The basic strategy of the mission is to promote and extend improved technologies i.e., seed, micronutrients, soil amendments, Integrated Pest Management, Farm Machinery and resource conservation technologies along with capacity building of farmers with effective monitoring and better management in the high potential districts in order to bridge the yield gaps. Implementation of Mission in the 11th Plan has not only achieved the targeted food grains production but has also widened the base of food grains production with significant contribution from low productivity Districts. During the 12th Plan, it is proposed to include coarse cereals as well in the Mission. Emphasis would be on promotion of technologies adopting cropping system approach in identified clusters. This is expected to increase demand of seeds in India. (Source: State of Indian Agriculture 2012-2013)

Challenges and Way Forward The challenges confronting the seed sector is to make available quality seeds and planting materials having good genetic potential at an affordable price and across the country to the farmers to enable them harvest maximum yield under the given agro-climatic conditions. In pursuance to this challenge, effort is being made to produce quality seeds with the collective efforts of Public and Private sector seed producing agencies, however, it cannot be said that enough is being done. There is need to develop better varieties/hybrids/planting materials, which will be able to manifest itself even under the challenging agro-climatic conditions. We have to adopt new technologies available for fast tracking the development of quality varieties/ planting materials like, Genetic Modification, Tissue Culture etc. to address this concern. These technologies enable development, production of planting materials, varieties/hybrids, with better genetic potential in the shortest possible time and maintain uniformity of quality across the production line. Genetic Modification helps in attacking/ addressing multiple problems at the same time, like addressing the problems of productivity, stress tolerance, pests and disease tolerance simultaneously by combining genes responsible for higher productivity with genes responsible for stress tolerant and or genes responsible for disease/pests tolerance. Momentum for the development of GM technology in the country has somewhat slowed down due to opposition from certain quarters on safety issues, however, there is need to address these concerns through adoption of appropriate measures for safety and safeguards and move ahead with the technology for meeting the challenges facing the country. It is also a fact that in many crops, the leading varieties being cultivated are more than 20 years old, though, every year new varieties are being released. This indicates that the concerns of the farmers are not being adequately addressed by R&D set up in the country. The State Agricultural Universities, ICAR and its Institutions and also the Private sector involved in development of new varieties/hybrids/planting materials, have to address this issue in a more concerted manner to make its impact pronounced on agricultural production.

Page 49 of 444

The seed multiplication ratio from Breeder seed to Foundation seed and from Foundation seed to Certified seed, needs to be addressed by all the seed producing agencies, both in Public and Private Sector. Comprehensive and authentic database on seed production and distribution in India by public and private sectors needs to be built for the benefit of information of all the stakeholders. The seed chain and the norms for quality control have to be scrupulously followed by all the States/UTs to ensure maintenance of quality of seeds being sold to the farmers. The provision of subsidy for seeds for newer and older variety needs to be rationalized. The issue of seed certification and distribution of certified seeds is largely dependent on the sumptuous implementation of the provisions of Seed Act by the States. The seed certification agencies and seed inspectors have to be more vigilant to check sale of spurious seeds in the market. Accreditation of horticultural nurseries is gaining importance with the increasing demand for supply of quality planting materials of horticultural crops. Accreditation of nurseries therefore needs to be speeded up. The States needs to prepare long term Seed Plan for the State keeping in mind the agroclimatic conditions, farmer’s economic status and desire to adopt quality seeds, SRR of the crop, State’s crop calendar, contingent situation arising, etc., in order to ensure availability of quality seed at the right time to the farmers. Often, it is seen that States do not have adequate Seed Plan, as a result of which the farmers are forced to fall back on ‘farm-saved’ seeds or Truthfully Labelled Seeds. This is not a viable option for enhancing productivity and production. Step has been taken in consultation with the State Governments to prepare Seed Plan for 5 years.

With a vision of “Being the most preferred seed brand in India in major crops like cumin seeds, castor seeds, fennel seeds, lucerene seeds, sesame seeds, fodder bajra seeds etc”, our Promoter Mr. Mafatlal Patel, with his rich agricultural experience established Mangalam Seeds Corporation, a partnership firm in 2007, accompanied by technical expertise of our eminent agricultural scientist Dr. I.D. Patel and backed by intense research and development.With handful of hybrids already developed with continuous research and development, our promoters acknowledging the growth prospects the seed industry offers, converted the partnership firm and incorporated our Company under the name “Mangalam Seeds Limited” in 2011.

At present, our Company is offering a wide range of seeds categorised as “research seeds” and “hybrid seeds”. Research seeds are high quality seeds, being produced by a backward integration process and offers natural nutrient qualities. These seeds require intensive research and are also called as pure seeds. Hybrid seeds on the other hand, are produced through open pollination and cross pollination process. As on date we have developed 16 varieties of seeds. Further our Company has a collection of around 976 varieties of germplasm in various crops. Our products are being marketed under various brand names like Eklavya, Volina, Leetos, Juddo etc. Currently our Company has obtained 15 trademarks and already applied for 55 others to secure these brand names and logos.

Our growth strategy is majorly defined by one word i.e. “Research and Development” and our Company makes conscious efforts to produce better and different varieties of seeds. Our Company has R&D farms measuring approximately 29.17 acres to carry on its research activities. We further believe in developing state of art infrastructure and technology and have set up 2 greenhouses and 2 open poly houses and adequate tube wells for uninterrupted water supply.

We believe that in this competing world, no business can survive without marketing. Our company has strong marketing channels in Gujarat and Rajasthan, comprising of around 154 distributors, more than 1840 dealers and retailers to support marketing. We are seasonally organizing farmers and dealers meeting including farm demonstration. We are also putting our products on TV and news paper for advertising and field meetings with farmers to support marketing.

Driven by rich agricultural experience, increasing thrust on R&D, expectations of continued Government support, we foresee to expand our operations from Gujarat and Rajasthan to PAN India basis. We want to continue developing high yielding, diseases and pest resistant varieties in our crops and focus on value addition by assimilating the latest technologies and global best practices.

He has been awarded 6 awards for his notable contribution in the field of agriculture including Sardar Patel award.

5. We have adequate research and development capabilities that allow us to develop innovative products.

We have a dedicated research and development team of 14 employees who are focused on the research of hybrid seeds and the development of new or improved proprietary hybrids based on their research. We also carry out our research through collaborations with academic institutions and other strategic partners.

However, the investors with holdings of value less than Rs. 1,00,000/- shall be allowed to offer their holding to the Market Maker(s) (individually or jointly) in that scrip provided that he sells his entire holding in that scrip in one lot along with a declaration to the effect to the selling broker. Based on the IPO price of Rs. 50/- the minimum lot size is 3,000 Equity shares thus minimum depth of the quote shall be Rs. 1.50 Lakhs until the same, would be revised by BSE.

As soon as the Shares of Market Maker in our Company reduce to 24% of Issue Size, the Market Maker will resume providing 2-way quotes.

4. There shall be no exemption/threshold on downside. However, in the event the Market Maker exhausts his inventory through market making process, BSE may intimate the same to SEBI after due verification.

5. Execution of the order at the quoted price and quantity must be guaranteed by the Market Maker(s), for the quotes given by him.

6. There would not be more than five Market Makers for the Company’s Equity Shares at any point of time and the Market Makers may compete with other Market Makers for better quotes to the investors. At this stage, BCB Brokerage Private Limited is acting as the sole Market Maker.

7. On the first day of the listing, there will be pre-opening session (call auction) and there after the trading will happen as per the equity market hours. The circuits will apply from the first day of the listing on the discovered price during the pre-open call auction.

INDIAN ECONOMIC REVIEW One of the redeeming features, while comparing economic performance across different countries for the year 2014-15, has been the emergence of India among the few large economies with propitious economic outlook, amidst the mood of pessimism and uncertainties that engulf a number of advanced and emerging economies. Brighter prospects in India owe mainly to the fact that the economy stands largely relieved of the vulnerabilities associated with an economic slowdown, persistent inflation, elevated fiscal deficit, slackening domestic demand, external account imbalances, and oscillating value of the rupee in 2011-12 and 2012-13. From the macroeconomic perspective, the worst is clearly behind us. The latest indicators, emerging from the recently revised estimates of national income brought out by the Central Statistics Office, point to the fact that the revival of growth had started in 2013-14 and attained further vigour in 2014-15. Factors like the steep decline in oil prices, plentiful flow of funds from the rest of the world, and potential impact of the reform initiatives of the new government at the centre along with its commitment to calibrated fiscal management and consolidation bode well for the growth prospects and the overall macroeconomic situation. Encouraged by the greater macro-economic stability and the reformist intent and actions of the government, coupled with improved business sentiments in the country, institutions like the IMF and the World Bank have presented an optimistic growth outlook for India for the year 2015 and beyond. The possible headwinds to such promising prospects, however, emanate from factors like inadequate support from the global economy saddled with subdued demand conditions, particularly in Europe and Japan, recent slowdown in China, and, on the domestic front, from possible spill-overs of below normal agricultural growth and challenges relating to the massive requirements of skill creation and infrastructural upgradation. The encouraging results from the Advance Estimates for 2014-15 suggest that though the global sluggishness has partly fed into the lacklustre growth in foreign trade; yet this downward pressure has been compensated by strong domestic demand, keeping the growth momentum going.

Growth in Real GDP (per cent) The economic scenario presented by the new series (with 2011-12 as base year) reveals that there was perceptible improvement in some of the macro- aggregates of the economy in 2013- 14, which got strengthened in 2014-15. Economic growth, measured by growth in gross domestic product (GDP) at constant market prices, estimated at 5.1 per cent and 6.9 per cent respectively during 2012-13 and 2013-14, was higher than the corresponding figures of 4.7 per cent and 5.0 per cent released under the 2004-05 series in May 2014. That this high growth occurred in a year when the both the savings and investment to GDP ratios were lower than the average of a number of years and when the level of imports (that are generally positively associated with GDP) actually declined by 8.4 per cent in real terms, is somewhat puzzling. One of the reasons why the real GDP growth rate for 2013-14 appears to be strong is the lower GDP level in 2011-12 and 2012-13 along with lower GDP deflators than were thought hitherto. The table 1.1 captures these effects separately based on the new and old series of the GVA at factor cost. The level of GVA was lower in 2011-12 and 2012-13 in the new series vis-à- vis the old series, with the degree of change tapering off in successive years. This cannot be verified for the Advance Estimates (AE) for 2014-15, for which only the data from new series is available. A greater decline in the level of GDP in 2011-12 and 2012-13, has given an upward push to the growth rate in the 2013- 14. On the other hand, the upward revision of inflation in 2012-13, measured by the GDP deflator, gave a downward push to growth, but not to the extent of nullifying the positive effect of relative revisions in absolute levels. In 2013-14, the downward revision in the deflator pushed up real growth in the new series. (Source – Economic Survey 2014-2015) Outlook for 2015-16 The macroeconomic situation in India has improved significantly during the current year. The release of the new series of national accounts revealed that the economy has been performing much better than what was being depicted earlier. The steady acceleration in services and manufacturing growth in the face of subdued global demand conditions point to the strengthening of domestic demand. Most of the buoyancy in domestic demand can be traced to consumption. Investment activity, which is slowly picking up. The savings-investment dynamics will be crucial for the growth to strengthen further in the coming years, in addition to reversal of the subdued export performance being currently witnessed. The key will be the response of savings to improved price and financial market stability, and of investment, particularly in the crucial infrastructure sector, to reform efforts of the Government that are underway. On the supply side, there are concerns about tentative growth patterns in construction and mining activities that need to be addressed to. This is particularly important in view of the strong intersectoral linkages that these sectors have. The farm sector suffered from a relatively poor monsoon, but there are no indications of its spillover to be next year. The improving rate of value addition in the economy, represented by the ratio of value added to output, and the falling incremental capital output ratio indicate better resource use in production. On the global front, the United States radiates confidence and strength, while some other structurally important economies like China, Russia, Euro area and Japan face uncertain prospects, thereby affecting global growth and investment outlook. The sharp decline in oil prices has provided an incentive for overall global growth and stability. At the same time, it has diminished fortunes of oil

exporting countries that can influence economic activity adversely. In the light of the Government’s commitment to reforms, along with the improvements in price and external sector scenarios including the possibility of international oil prices remaining generally benign, the outlook for domestic macroeconomic parameters is generally optimistic, notwithstanding the uncertainties that could also arise from an increase in interest rates in the United States and situation prevailing in Greece within Euro-zone. Given the above, and assuming normal monsoons better prospects in the world economy that could provide impetus to higher exports for Indian products and services, a growth of around 8.5 per cent is in the realm of possibility in 2015-16.

AGRICULTURE SECTOR IN INDIA

Introduction

Despite the focus on industrialisation, agriculture remains a dominant sector of the Indian economy both in terms of contribution to gross domestic product (GDP) as well as a source of employment to millions across the country. Agriculture plays a vital role in the Indian economy. Over 70 per cent of the rural households depend on agriculture as their principal means of livelihood. Agriculture, along with fisheries and forestry, accounts for one-third of the nation’s GDP and is its single largest contributor. The total Share of Agriculture & Allied Sectors (Including agriculture, livestock, forestry and fishery sub sectors) in terms of percentage of GDP is 13.9 percent during 2013-14 at 2004-05 prices. [As per the estimates released by Central Statistics Office] Agricultural exports constitute a fifth of the total exports of the country. In view of the predominant position of the Agricultural Sector, collection and maintenance of Agricultural Statistics assume great importance. The country is also the largest producer, consumer and exporter of spices and spice products in the world and overall in farm and agriculture outputs, it is ranked second. From canned, dairy, processed, frozen food to fisheries, meat, poultry, and food grains, the Indian agro industry has plenty of areas to choose for business. The Department of Agriculture and Cooperation under the Ministry of Agriculture is the nodal organisation responsible for the development of the agriculture sector in India. Under it, several other bodies such as the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) work for the development of other allied agricultural sectors. Market Size There are multiple factors that have predominantly worked in tandem leading to the growth of the Indian agriculture sector in recent years. These include growth in income and consumption, growth in food processing sector and increase in agricultural exports. Also, increasing private participation in Indian agriculture, growing organic farming and usage of information technology are the trends that are being witnessed by the agriculture industry. As per the 4th Advance Estimates of Production of food grains for 2013-14, total food grain production is estimated to be 264.77 million tonnes (MT).  With an annual output of 130 MT, India is the largest producer of the milk in the world. It also has the largest milk-producing animal population of over 118 million. However, milk yields per animal are among the lowest in the world.

Page 124 of 444

 India is the biggest producer of pulses in the world at 19 MT and their biggest importer 3.5 MT.  India is the second largest producer of sugar in the world and the government has aimed to increase the exports from 1.3 MT in 2013 to an average of 2 MT in 2014 and 2015. Spice exports from India are expected to reach US$ 3 billion by 2016-17, on the back of creative marketing strategies, innovative packaging, strength in quality and a strong distribution network. The Indian spices market is pegged at Rs 40,000 crore (US$ 6.42 billion) annually, of which the branded segment accounts for 15 per cent. In 2013-14 India achieved a record food grain production of 264 MT, beating the previous year’s (2012-13) 257 MT, according to data provided by Department of Economics and Statistics (DES). Also, agricultural profitability has increased over the last decade with record increases in MSPs (minimum support prices) for agricultural produce for all covered crops.

Government Initiatives Government during the budget 2014-15 took a number of steps for sustainable development of Agriculture. These steps include enhanced institutional credit to farmers; promotion of scientific warehousing infrastructure including cold storages and cold chains in the country for increasing shelf life of agricultural produce; Improved access to irrigation through Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sichayee Yojana; provision of Price Stabilisation Fund to mitigate price volatility in agricultural produce;

Page 125 of 444

Mission mode scheme for Soil Health Card; Setting up of Agri-tech Infrastructure fund for making farming competitive and profitable; provide institutional finance to joint farming groups of “Bhoomi Heen Kisan” through NABARD; development of indigenous cattle breeds and promoting inland fisheries and other non-farm activities to supplement the income of farmers. The Department of Agriculture & Cooperation under Ministry of Agriculture has entered into MOUs/Agreements with 52 countries including United State of America. In addition, Department of Agriculture Research & Education (DARE) and Department of Animal Husbandry, Dairying & Fisheries (DAHD&F) under Ministry of Agriculture have also entered into MOUs/Agreements with other countries taking the total number of countries to 63. Agreements with these countries provide better agricultural facilities due to cooperation in areas such as Research and Development, Capacity Building, Germ-Plasm Exchange, Post Harvest Management, Value Addition/ Food Processing, Plant Protection, Animal Husbandry, Dairy & Fisheries and also help in enhancing bilateral trade. Some of the recent major government initiatives in the sector are as follows:

 The National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) has announced 42 dairy projects with a financial outlay of Rs 221 crore (US$ 35.47 million) in order to boost milk output in the country and increase per animal production of milk.  The Government of India has planned to invest Rs 50,000 crore (US$ 8.02 billion) to revive four fertilizer plants and set up two new plants to produce farm nutrients.  The Ministry of Food Processing Industries has taken some new initiatives to develop the food processing sector which will also help to enhance the incomes of farmers and export of agro and processed foods among others.  Israel has increased its cooperation with Indian agriculture, helping farmers multiply their income with better practices, yields and choosing the right crops or vegetables in a success story that is boosting bilateral ties that have strengthened under the Government of Mr Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India.  The Government of Telangana has allocated Rs 4,250 crore (US$ 682.31 million) for the first phase of farm loan waiver scheme. The scheme is expected to benefit 3.6 million farmers who had taken loans of Rs 100,000 (US$ 1,605.46) or below before March 31, 2014. Road Ahead The Indian agriculture sector is expected to grow with better momentum in the next few years owing to increase in investment in agricultural infrastructure such as irrigation facilities, warehousing and cold storage. Factors such as reduced transaction costs, time, better port gate management and fiscal incentives will also contribute to this upward trend. Furthermore, the increased use of genetically modified crops is also expected to better the yield of the Indian farmers. The 12th Five Year Plan’s estimates of expanding the storage capacity to 35 MT and the target of achieving an overall growth of 4 per cent will also go a long way in modifying the overall face of the Indian agriculture sector in the next few years.

INDIAN SEED INDUSTRY Overview Quality seeds and planting materials are the key agricultural inputs, which determine the productivity of the crops. The efficacy of other agricultural inputs such as fertilizers, pesticides and irrigation is largely determined by the quality of the seed used. It is estimated that quality of seed accounts for 20-25% of productivity. Hence timely availability of quality seeds at affordable prices to farmers is necessary for achieving higher agricultural productivity and production. The varied agro climatic conditions of the country are suitable for cultivation of large number of crops and varieties. This necessitates production of quality seeds and planting materials for a huge range of crops for achieving the targeted production. The organized sector comprising of both the private and public sector accounts for about 15 to 20% of the total seed distributed in the country. The remaining portion is contributed by the unorganized sector comprising mainly of farm-saved seeds. Prudent mechanism for seed certification, testing, labelling and enforcement is necessary to maintain seed quality. Varietal development, plant variety protection, seed production, quality assurance, creation of infrastructure for seeds, transgenics, import of planting material, export of seeds and promotion of domestic seed industry are necessary for a vibrant seed industry. An enabling environment for speedy trial and evaluation of imported seeds for the betterment of agriculture production in the country is necessary. The Seeds Bill, 2004 has been introduced in the Parliament to overcome the limitation of Seeds Act 1966, and provides for the regulation of seed quality and planting material of all agricultural, horticultural and plantation crops with the view to ensure availability of true to type seeds to Indian farmers; curb sale of spurious and poor quality seeds; protection of rights of farmers, increase private participation in seed production, distribution and seed testing; liberalize imports of seeds and planting material, and align with World Trade Organization (WTO) commitments and international standards, needs to be enacted with utmost urgency. The seed multiplication ratio from Breeder seed to Foundation seed and from Foundation seed to Certified seed needs to be addressed by all the seed producing agencies, both in public and private sectors. Comprehensive and authentic database on seed production and distribution in India by public and private sectors needs to be built for the benefit of all the stakeholders. There is need to ensure adequate and timely availability of seed through appropriate tie ups with NSC, SFCI, State Seed Corporations etc., popularize Good Agricultural Practices (GAP), enhance Seed Replacement Ratio to 20-25% in pulses and 20% in case of groundnut, popularize new farming techniques like ridge-furrow sowing, deep ploughing, zero seed drill and seed (Source: State of Indian Agriculture 2012-2013) Evolution of the Seed Industry 1960s – Mid 1980s Mid 1980s – 1990s Current Status Strict regulatory regime: Seed Seed Industry boom due to Private Sector accounts for Act, 1966; Seed Rules, 1968 several government initiatives ~80% turnover in seed Industry Minimal Private Sector Foreign direct investment Almost 1/3 companies have a participation allowed and encouraged global technology/ financial partner R & D in public domain Trade regulations liberalized 14 Government organizations and 350 private players Restrictions on germplasm Imports of improved varieties Thrust on R&D from private exchange, foreign ownership and breeding lines liberalized players

1960s – Mid 1980s Mid 1980s – 1990s Current Status etc Most farmers depended on Policy reforms such as the New Hybridization gaining seed saved from their own Policy on Seed Development momentum crops cultivated in the previous (1988) and the economy wide year New Industrial Policy 1991 (Source:www.apsaseed.org/images/lovelypics/Documents/Technical%20Session08/India_%20Countr y%20Report.pdf ).

Seed Production System in India:

The Indian seed programme largely adheres to the limited generations’ system for seed multiplication in a phased manner. The system recognizes three generations namely breeder, foundation and certified seeds and provides adequate safeguards for quality assurance in the seed multiplication chain to maintain the purity of the variety as it flows from the breeder to the farmer.

Breeder Seed

Breeder seed is the progeny of nucleus seed of a variety and is produced by the originating breeder or by a sponsored breeder. Breeder seed production is the mandate of the Indian Council of Agricultural Researchand is being undertaken with the help of;

i. ICAR Research Institutions, National Research Centres and All India Coordinated Research Project of different crops; ii. State Agricultural Universities (SAUs) with 14 centres established in different States; iii. Sponsored breeders recognized by selected State Seed Corporations, and iv. Non-Governmental Organizations.

ICAR also promotes sponsored breeder seed production programme through the National Seeds Corporation / State Farms Corporation of India, State Seeds Corporation, Krishi Vigyan Kendras etc.There has been a steady increase in the production of breeder seed over the years.

The indents from various seeds producing agencies are collected by the State Departments of Agriculture and submitted to the Department of Agriculture and Cooperation (DAC), Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India, which in turn compiles the whole information crop wise and sends it to the Project Coordinator/Project Director of the respective crops in ICAR for final allocation of production responsibility to different SAUs/ICAR institutions. The allocation of responsibility for production of breeder seed is discussed in the workshop in respect of the particular crop and is made to various centres as per the facilities and capabilities available at the centres and the availability of nucleus seed of a particular variety. It may be noted that indents are compiled and forwarded to ICAR at least 18 months in advance. To make the programme systematic, and for proper evaluation of the breeder seed production programme, monitoring terms have been constituted and reporting proformae have been devised. The monitoring terms consist of breeder of the variety, the concerned Project Director or his nominee, representative of NSC. The production of breeder seed is reviewed every year by ICAR-DAC in the annual seed review meeting.

The actual production of breeder seed by different centres is intimated to DAC by ICAR. On receipt of information from ICAR, the available breeder seed is allocated to all the indenters in an equitable

Page 128 of 444

manner. In the case of varieties which are relevant only to a particular State, the indents for breeder seed are placed by the concerned Director of Agriculture with the SAUs/ICAR institutions located in the State. The breeder seed produced is lifted directly by the Director of Agriculture or foundation seed producing agencies authorized by him.

Foundation Seed

Foundation seed is the progeny of breeder seed and is required to be produced from breeder seed or from foundation seed which can be clearly traced to breeder seed. The responsibility for production of foundation seed has been entrusted to the NSC, SFCI, State Seeds Corporation, State Departments of Agriculture and private seed producers, who have the necessary infrastructure facilities. Foundation seed is required to meet the standards of seed certification prescribed in the Indian Minimum Seeds Certification Standards, both at the field and laboratory testing.

Certified Seed

Certified seed is the progeny of foundation seed and must meet the standards of seed certification prescribed in the Indian Minimum Seeds Certification Standards, 1988. In case of self pollinated crops, certified seeds can also be produced from certified seeds provided it does not go beyond three generations from foundation seed stage-I. The production and distribution of quality/certified seeds is primarily the responsibility of the State Governments. Certified seed production is organized through State Seed Corporation, Departmental Agricultural Farms, Cooperatives etc. The distribution of seeds is undertaken through a number of channels i.e. departmental outlets at block and village level, cooperatives, outlets of seed corporations, private dealers etc. The efforts of the State Governments are being supplemented by NSC and SFCI which produce varieties of national importance. NSC markets its seeds through its own marketing network and also through its dealer network. SFCI markets its seeds mainly through the State Departments of Agriculture and the State Seed Corporations. The production of certified seed by NSC and State Seed Corporations is mainly organized through contract growing arrangements with progressive farmers. SFCI undertakes seed production on its own farms. The private sector has also started to play an important role in the supply of quality seeds of vegetables and crops like hybrid maize, sorghum, Bajra, cotton, castor, sunflower, paddy etc.

The requirement of certified/quality seeds is assessed by State Governments on the basis of the area sown under different crop varieties, area covered by hybrid and self-pollinated varieties as well as the seed replacement rate achieved. The availability of seed is ascertained by the State Departments of Agriculture on the basis of the production of seed in government farms and production of seeds by State Seeds Corporations and other agencies.The Government of India periodically assesses the requirement and availability of seeds through detailed interaction with State Governments and seed producing agencies in the bi-annual Zonal Seed Review Meetings and the National Kharif and Rabi Conferences. The Department of Agriculture and Cooperation facilitates tie-up arrangements with seed producing agencies to ensure that the requirement of seeds is met to the maximum extent possible

INDUSTRY DRIVERS As key agricultural inputs, seed products have the following common industry drivers: 1. Population growth A fundamental driver for the increase in demand for crops is global population growth. The United Nations projects that world population will increase from 6.8 Billion in 2009 and will surpass 9 billion people by 2050. India’s population also has grown at a steady pace in past few years.

(Source: http://censusindia.gov.in/2011-prov-results/data_files/india/Final_PPT_2011_chapter3.pdf) The population of India is expected to increase from 1029 million to 1400 million during the period 2001-2026 – an increase of 36 percent in twenty- five years at the rate of 1.2 percent annually as per the report of the technical group on population projections constituted by the

Page 131 of 444

national commission on population May 2006 titled “Population Projections for India and States 2001-2026” 2. Land availability Arable land is scarce in many parts of the world and under pressure from urbanization and industrial uses. It can be seen from the table below that the area under cultivation in since 2000- 01 has more or less been stagnant. Accordingly, there is continual pressure to increase the productivity of available resources. AREA UNDER CULTIVATION – FOODGRAINS (Million hectares) Cereals Year Coarse Total Rice Wheat Total Cereals Pulses Cereals Foodgrains 2000-01 44.71 25.73 30.26 100.7 20.35 121.05 2001-02 44.9 26.34 29.52 100.76 22.01 122.77 2002-03 41.18 25.2 26.99 93.37 20.5 113.87 2003-04 42.59 26.6 30.8 99.99 23.46 123.45 2004-05 41.91 26.38 29.03 97.32 22.76 120.08 2005-06 43.66 26.48 29.06 99.2 22.39 121.57 2006-07 43.81 27.99 28.71 100.51 23.19 123.7 2007-08 43.91 28.04 28.48 100.43 23.63 124.06 2008-09 45.54 27.75 27.45 100.74 22.09 122.83 2009-10 41.92 28.46 27.68 98.06 23.28 121.33 2010-11 42.86 29.07 28.34 100.27 26.4 126.67 2011-12 44.01 29.86 26.42 100.29 24.46 124.75 2012-13 42.41 29.65 24.64 96.7 23.47 120.16 2013-14 43.95 31.19 25.67 100.81 25.23 126.04 CAGR -0.12% 1.38% -1.17% 0.01% 1.55% 0.29% Note: Data for 2013-14 are based on Advance Estimates. Source: Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India, RBI Website. 3. National Seed Mission A need was felt, in the current scenario, to upgrade and expand the existing scheme ‘Development and Strengthening of Infrastructure Facilities for Production and Distribution of Quality Seeds’ (DPQS) into a National Mission with a focused, time bound and integrated approach to further improve the availability of quality seeds to the farmers. Hence, it is proposed to launch a Mini-Mission on “Seeds and Planting Material” under the new Centrally Sponsored Scheme “National Mission on Agricultural Extension and Technology” during Twelfth Five Year Plan. The Mission includes seed planning, seed production, varietal replacement, seed infrastructure, quality control, specific interventions for seed PSUs, contingency planning, assistance to private sector, international cooperation, etc. These and other such incentives are expected to boost production of seeds in India.

4. National Food Security Mission The National Food Security Mission is presently under implementation in 482 Districts of 19 States of the country with a view to enhance the production of Rice, Wheat and Pulses through area expansion and productivity enhancement; restoring soil fertility and productivity; creating employment opportunities; and enhancing farm level economy to restore confidence of farmers. The basic strategy of the mission is to promote and extend improved technologies i.e., seed, micronutrients, soil amendments, Integrated Pest Management, Farm Machinery and resource conservation technologies along with capacity building of farmers with effective monitoring and better management in the high potential districts in order to bridge the yield gaps. Implementation of Mission in the 11th Plan has not only achieved the targeted food grains production but has also widened the base of food grains production with significant contribution from low productivity Districts. During the 12th Plan, it is proposed to include coarse cereals as well in the Mission. Emphasis would be on promotion of technologies adopting cropping system approach in identified clusters. This is expected to increase demand of seeds in India. (Source: State of Indian Agriculture 2012-2013)

Challenges and Way Forward The challenges confronting the seed sector is to make available quality seeds and planting materials having good genetic potential at an affordable price and across the country to the farmers to enable them harvest maximum yield under the given agro-climatic conditions. In pursuance to this challenge, effort is being made to produce quality seeds with the collective efforts of Public and Private sector seed producing agencies, however, it cannot be said that enough is being done. There is need to develop better varieties/hybrids/planting materials, which will be able to manifest itself even under the challenging agro-climatic conditions. We have to adopt new technologies available for fast tracking the development of quality varieties/ planting materials like, Genetic Modification, Tissue Culture etc. to address this concern. These technologies enable development, production of planting materials, varieties/hybrids, with better genetic potential in the shortest possible time and maintain uniformity of quality across the production line. Genetic Modification helps in attacking/ addressing multiple problems at the same time, like addressing the problems of productivity, stress tolerance, pests and disease tolerance simultaneously by combining genes responsible for higher productivity with genes responsible for stress tolerant and or genes responsible for disease/pests tolerance. Momentum for the development of GM technology in the country has somewhat slowed down due to opposition from certain quarters on safety issues, however, there is need to address these concerns through adoption of appropriate measures for safety and safeguards and move ahead with the technology for meeting the challenges facing the country. It is also a fact that in many crops, the leading varieties being cultivated are more than 20 years old, though, every year new varieties are being released. This indicates that the concerns of the farmers are not being adequately addressed by R&D set up in the country. The State Agricultural Universities, ICAR and its Institutions and also the Private sector involved in development of new varieties/hybrids/planting materials, have to address this issue in a more concerted manner to make its impact pronounced on agricultural production. The seed multiplication ratio from Breeder seed to Foundation seed and from Foundation seed to Certified seed, needs to be addressed by all the seed producing agencies, both in Public and Private Sector. Comprehensive and authentic database on seed production and distribution in India by public

Page 133 of 444

and private sectors needs to be built for the benefit of information of all the stakeholders. The seed chain and the norms for quality control have to be scrupulously followed by all the States/Uts to ensure maintenance of quality of seeds being sold to the farmers. The provision of subsidy for seeds for newer and older variety needs to be rationalized. The issue of seed certification and distribution of certified seeds is largely dependent on the sumptuous implementation of the provisions of Seed Act by the States. The seed certification agencies and seed inspectors have to be more vigilant to check sale of spurious seeds in the market. Accreditation of horticultural nurseries is gaining importance with the increasing demand for supply of quality planting materials of horticultural crops. Accreditation of nurseries therefore needs to be speeded up. The States needs to prepare long term Seed Plan for the State keeping in mind the agroclimatic conditions, farmer’s economic status and desire to adopt quality seeds, SRR of the crop, State’s crop calendar, contingent situation arising, etc., in order to ensure availability of quality seed at the right time to the farmers. Often, it is seen that States do not have adequate Seed Plan, as a result of which the farmers are forced to fall back on ‘farm-saved’ seeds or Truthfully Labelled Seeds. This is not a viable option for enhancing productivity and production. Step has been taken in consultation with the State Governments to prepare Seed Plan for 5 years.

OUR BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Instituted in 2011, our Company Mangalam Seeds Limited, an ISO 9001:2008 certified is engaged in producing and delivering high quality seeds with specialisation in spices and forage crops.

With a vision of “Being the most preferred seed brand in India in major crops like cumin seeds, castor seeds, fennel seeds, lucerene seeds, sesame seeds, fodder bajra seeds etc”, our Promoter Mr. Mafatlal Patel, with his rich agricultural experience established Mangalam Seeds Corporation, a partnership firm in 2007, accompanied by technical expertise of our eminent agricultural scientist Dr. I.D. Patel and backed by intense research and development.. With handful of hybrids already developed with continuous research and development, our promoters acknowledging the growth prospects the seed industry offers, converted the partnership firm and incorporated our Company under the name “Mangalam Seeds Limited” in 2011.

At present, our Company is offering a wide range of seeds categorised as “research seeds” and “hybrid seeds”. Research seeds are high quality seeds, being produced by a backward integration process and offers natural nutrient qualities. These seeds require intensive research and are also called as pure seeds. Hybrid seeds on the other hand, are produced through open pollination and cross pollination process. As on date we have developed 16 varieties of seeds. Further our Company has a collection of around 976 varieties of germplasm in various crops. Our products are being marketed under various brand names like Eklavya, Volina, Leetos, Juddo etc. Currently our Company has obtained 15 trademarks and already applied for 55 others to secure these brand names and logos.

Our growth strategy is majorly defined by one word i.e. “Research and Development” and our Company makes conscious efforts to produce better and different varieties of seeds. Our Company has R&D farms measuring approximately 29.12 acres to carry on its research activities.

PRODUCTION PROCESS

Page 144 of 444

A. Seed Production In seed production programme, our Company grows foundation seeds at the company’s leased agricultural lands. These foundation seeds are produced under strict supervision of our breeder. Breeding is the process of bringing together two specific parent plants to produce a new offspring plant which will have the desired traits and characteristics. The seeds produced are then processed at our modern plant located at Unjha, Mehsana. Our Company has an adequate storage with convenient loading and unloading system which enables us to store the seeds without deterioration of quality.

The important steps towards seed production are as under:

Germplasm:

Germplasm is the complete set of genetic material of any plant species. Plant breeding involves the creation of new allelic combinations, fixing of specific combinations of alleles and selection of superior combinations of alleles resulting in superior varieties or parents for hybrid seed production. Donor or source material used for breeding crosses should be determined to be of appropriate quality with regard to genetic purity and seed borne and seed transmitted pathogens.

Page 145 of 444

Nucleus Seeds

Nucleus seed is the initial handful of pure seeds of improved variety or parental lines of hybrid plant. When a new variety of plant is released there is very little seed as only a handful of superior seeds will be selected by the breeder from individual plants. Nucleus seeds being genetically pure do not contain physical impurities. The nucleus seed is produced under strict isolation in order to avoid both genetical and physical contamination. Nucleus seed are managed with great care so that all seed produced from it remains true to the new variety. This is a most important step and is the responsibility of the plant breeder who developed the variety. The nucleus seed is not available to farmers. The next step in the chain from plant breeder to farmer is that the plant breeder develops Breeder Seed.

Breeder Seeds

Breeder seed is the progeny of nucleus seed. Generally breeder seed is produced in one stage. But if there is greater demand for breeder seed and there is low seed multiplication ratio then breeders seed can be produced in two stages, viz Breeder stage I and II. In such cases breeder seed, stage I becomes source for breeder Stage II. Breeder seed plots are subjected to joint inspection by a team consisting of crop breeder from other Agricultural Universities in the State, representative of All India Coordinated Research Projects of the crop, National Seeds Corporation, State Seeds Corporation and Divisional Seed Certification Officer. Breeder seed produced should meet all prescribed standards viz. genetic purity (depending on crops in the range of 85% to 99%), physical purity (98%).

Foundation seed

Foundation seed is the seed produced from growing breeder seed. It is produced by trained persons to maintain the genetic purity of the variety. Foundation seed is less expensive than breeder seed and is not as pure as the nucleus and breeder’s seeds.

Certified / Research seed

Certified seed is produced from growing foundation, registered or certified seed. It is grown by selected farmers to maintain sufficient varietal purity. Production is subject to field and seed inspections. It is grown by selected farmers in a way that maintains genetic purity. Production of certified seeds undergoes field and seed inspections by seed certification agency to ensure conformity with standards.

Quality Control in seed production: Quality control is quitessential to any seed development programme. Our Company thrusts on quality control at all stages of seed production from germplasm to commercial seed production so that our seeds are qualitative, yields higher productivity and are disease resistant. Some of the quality control measures adopted by our Company during the process of seed production are as under:

Page 146 of 444

 Close monitoring for better agronomic management.  Maintaining purity standard of seed entering a breeding program  Maintain appropriate protocols for pathogen and pest detection  Management of perfect synchronization of flowering in both parents.  Ensuring genetic purity through standard field isolation.  Systematic monitoring and reporting at critical stages of crop growth.  Testing of seeds using appropriate methodology to establish and confirm integrity and purity of seed used in breeding program

B. Seed Processing and Conditioning

Post production, the seeds are bought to our processing facilities. The seeds are subjected to various stages of processing including drying, cleaning, de-weeding, screening etc. The moisture content in seeds is reduced to the optimum level in order to increase their storage life. We use certain technologies like chemical treatment and seed coating with insecticides and fungicides to ensure faster germination, qualitative and qualitative yield and disease resistant crop.

Our Company has made significant investment in establishing infrastructure for R & D, Processing, Testing, and Packing of its product. The seeds are produced by our experienced contract growers and are then processed at the processing plant at our leased farms at Unjha. The seeds are processed in advanced processing plant with screening, de-stoner and gravity separation properties.

The processes adopted by our Company for seed processing are as under:

SEED DRYING

The moisture content in seeds is reduced to the optimum level in order to increase their storage life.

Page 147 of 444

SEED CLEANING

Seed cleaning process involves separation of seed mixtures from dust, chaff and undersized seeds. It also involves grading of seeds based on weight, length, shape and size.

.

SEED TREATMENT

Seeds are treated with chemicals and coated with polymers to protect seeds from deterioration, fungal attack, ageing and foster faster germination and healthy seedling development.

Quality control in Seed Conditioning Our Company provides foundation seeds which are grown under strict supervision of our breeder. The multiplied seeds are tested in laboratory for germination and genetical purity. We continuously endeavour that our seeds meet the required quality parameters of germination, genetic purity and yield, thus maximising profitability for farmers who are the end users of our product. We adhere to our pre- determined quality standards during production as well as during processing and conditioning at our plant. We draw samples from the seed lots received and test them at seed testing laboratories and grow-out test centres (“GOT”) centres in order to conduct GOTs and other tests for quality. The different tests/processes adopted by our Company for ensuring quality control are as follows:  Physical Purity Test  Moisture Test  Germination Test  Seed Viability Test  Seed Health Page 148 of 444

 Vigour Test  Genetic Purity Test/ Molecular GOT Storage Our Company has adequate storage capacity with very easy loading and unloading system. This facility enables us to store seeds without any deterioration of quality.

OUR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT FACILITY Our success depends heavily on our ability to continue developing new products. Seed R&D covers a broad technological platform and technological advances are frequent, rapid and complex. We are heavily dependant on R & D procedures for making hybrid seeds and research seeds, depending on the demand. Our research and development activities include conventional breeding programmes and the use of innovative biotechnology tools. After new hybrid is developed it is rigorously tested at research station and the results are compared with existing seeds in the market which have major market share. The seeds are sent for further evaluation only if our hybrids are proved significantly superior to best seeds existing in the market.

Products developed by R&D are displayed through demonstrations at R&D farm as well as through product promotional activities. Product demonstrations are organized at farmer’s field for evaluation of product performance and acceptance of product. After organizing the demonstration at farmer’s level, “Field Day” programmes are organized to showcase the seed variety and its features to large number of farmers.

The following chart reflects in brief the new seeds development process:

The objectives of our research and development are as under:

1. To develop and diversify germplasm across various field crops and vegetables that are suitable for different agro-climatic conditions and geographical regions to meet the demand of various markets. 2. To asses yield and quality limiting factors/genes in well adopted varieties/hybrids of major crops. 3. To identify desirable characters/genes from available genetic material. 4. To transfer well identified beneficial genes to popular variety in place of undesirable genes and develop varieties/hybrids having good yield. E.g. transfer of non shattering genes in psyllium crop, blight and gamosis resistance genes in fennel crop, intersex genes in castor crop, six locule genes in

Page 150 of 444

sesamum crop, fast growing genes in fodder bajara, dwarf genes in fennel, late and early maturing genes in mustard crop, compact and long spick in castor female etc. 5. To identify the hybrids at research stations located at R&D farm and also maintain the stock of nucleus seed and breeder seed of all the products which are proved superior and accepted by farmers. 6. To undertake market oriented research to understand the requirement of farmers and agro industries.

As far as possible, the consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances and are presented in the same manner as the Company’s separate financial statements. 3. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires judgements, estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

RESTRICTIONS ON FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF INDIAN SECURITIES

Foreign investment in Indian securities is regulated through the Industrial Policy, 1991 of the Government of India and FEMA. While the Industrial Policy, 1991 prescribes the limits and the conditions subject to which foreign investment can be made in different sectors of the Indian economy, FEMA regulates the precise manner in which such investment may be made. Under the Industrial Policy, unless specifically restricted, foreign investment is freely permitted in all sectors of Indian economy up to any extent and without any prior approvals, but the foreign investor is required to follow certain prescribed procedures for making such investment. India’s current Foreign Direct Investment (“FDI”) Policy issued by the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, GOI (“DIPP”) by Consolidated FDI Policy Circular of 2015, with effect from May 12, 2015 (“Circular of 2015”), consolidates and subsumes all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DIPP. The Government usually updates the consolidated circular on FDI Policy once every Year and therefore, Circular of 2015 will be valid until the DIPP issues an updated circular. RBI has also issued Master Circular on Foreign Investment in India dated July 01, 2015 which is valid till June 30, 2016. In terms of the Master Circular, an Indian company may issue fresh shares to persons resident outside India (who are eligible to make investments in India, for which eligibility criteria are as prescribed). Such fresh issue of shares shall be subject to inter-alia, the pricing guidelines prescribed under the Master Circular. The Indian company making such fresh issue of shares would be subject to the reporting requirements, inter-alia with respect to consideration for issue of shares and also subject to making certain filings including filing of Form FC-GPR. Under paragraph 6.2.5 of the current consolidated FDI Policy, foreign direct investment in micro and small enterprises is subject to sectoral caps, entry routes and other sectoral regulations. At present 100% foreign direct investment through automatic route is permitted in the development and production of seeds and planting material. The transfer of shares between an Indian resident and a Non-resident does not require prior approval of FIPB or RBI, subject to fulfilment of certain conditions as specified by DIPP / RBI, from time to time. Such conditions include (i) the activities of the investee company are under the automatic route under the foreign direct investment (“FDI”) Policy and the non-resident shareholding is within the sectoral limits under the FDI policy; and (ii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by the SEBI/RBI. Investors are advised to refer to the exact text of the relevant statutory provisions of law before investing and / or subsequent purchase or sale transaction in the Equity Shares of Our Company. The Equity Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S Securities Act of 1933, as amended (U.S. Securities Act”) or any state securities laws in the United States and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, “U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S), except pursuant to exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities laws. Accordingly the Equity Shares are being offered and sold only outside the United States in offshore transaction in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S Securities Act and the applicable laws of the jurisdiction where those offers and sale occur. However the Equity Shares have not been and will not be registered, listed or otherwise qualified in any other jurisdiction outside India and may not be offered or sold, and Applications may not be made by persons in any such jurisdiction, except in compliance with the applicable laws of such jurisdiction.
